Current as of Build 20090415044329.

When typing into dialogue box (i.e search engines) browser crashes if you get 2 or more letters into an entry and there is a seemingly reasonable amount of suggestions based on history (not Google suggestions for searching).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a site (even the Shiretoko Alpha start page, enter a username)
2. Type an entry into a field that you have suggestions/history for
3. It will crash.
Actual Results:  
Crashed the browser.

Expected Results:  
allow me to continue typing

It worked fine 2 days ago.
I assume you are using 1.9.1b4pre and not Firefox 3.0.3.
