Anything in the event viewer ?

Comment 2

[ovidiu]

str: 
drag any rss link from http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/index.html
drag over Tb UI, not necessarily aim folderpane, 
(dragging over FF did nothing special)

Error console (or any other TB window) frozen with no error in it
If another place to look for errors or logs, tell me.

Comment 3

[ovidiu]

extra, :
IE would normally pop a question if I allow webcontent to be droped in this app (a thing it would do being in protected mode, and does for another rss soft) and does not make it till there

Comment 4

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

I can't drag either RSS from IE in to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5pre) Gecko/20091013 Shredder/3.0pre

adding manually doesn't bother it.

Comment 5

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

assuming the worst.

  ovidiu, does this also fail with a trunk (not 3.x) build?

Comment 6

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

nor can I reproduce with current trunk.
please update the bug if you can still reproduce
