Procedural Steps:
1.Go to Quictime plugin test cases page.
2.Click on step1 .
3.One  by one click on all three test URL links
(AVItest#2,MPEGtest#3,MPEGtest#3) for Test Number 3.
4.Expected result:The URL page is displayed in the browser and accordingly the
browser prompts for a downloading a plugin if one is required.
5.Actual result:Instantly the browser crashes (going to that URL).
Similiar is the case with Test Number 4 (all three links).

Even the Step 5 for the Quicktime plugins shows the same behaviour:
ie going to URL
-http://www.mozilla.org/quality/browser/front-end/testcases/plugins/pluginintable.html
crashes the browser.
