533685 - Access violation crash on random clicks to pages in sidebar

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 521426

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Steve Wagner]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2b4) Gecko/20091124 Firefox/3.6b4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2b4) Gecko/20091124 Firefox/3.6b4

I often got an Access violation when i click to bookmarks that opened in sidebar. This happens in all beta versions of Firefox 3.6 and for me on two different machines.

Ive did some tests with a copy of my profile, but deleting all extension and adobe flash dose not solve the problem.

This is a really huge show stopper, since i use http://www.google.com/ie in Firefox sidebar very often.

Ive have created a minidump of this access violation with Windbg, but i dont want to publicly upload this dump. But i will send it to a developer if requested. I also available to test something if need, but i could not compile Firefox by myself.

Ive noticed that Firefox responds very slowly 2-3 seconds before the crash.

In Firefox 3.5 i have no problems with this.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a lot pages and windows (4 windows 70 tabs - for me)
2. Open two bookmarks in sidebar (example http://www.google.com/ie)
3. Randomly click to links and buttons and the pages and switch between the to bookmarks.
Actual Results:  
Firefox crahses with an Access violation

Expected Results:  
No crash :-)

Ive submitted some crash reports with mail address lanwin at lanwin dot de.
