Restarting firefox from the addon "Restart Firefox" does not fix this 'infinite load', only copying the URL you wish to go to and opening a fresh tab allows the page to load. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load google 2. Open a new tab and navigate to hotmail, sign in then sign out. 3. From the hotmail tab, navigate to google or Facebook Actual Results: Tab fails to load in an appropriate ammount of time Expected Results: Website loads instantly. It should have stopped the webpage and tried again? Apologies on this bug report, it's my first.

Version: unspecified → 3.5 Branch
I'm using the Release Candidate of Windows 7, I'll have to try the safe mode tomorrow and I still haven't figured out how to make a new profile I'm afraid.
Reporter, please update if you are able to reproduce the problem in safe mode / new profile.
