Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[n.warner55]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Since downloading Firefox 3.6 4 days ago,I frequently get the "Well, this is embarrassing" message. This happens when I am opening a new session. Not trying to restore previous session.

Also the pop up blocker is ignoring exceptions I put in. Turning off pop up blocker also does not work. The tab freezes or hangs when I expect a pop up new window. Some sites I can get around the bug by opening in a new tab. But other sites don't give this option. 

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start up XP (SP3)
2.Start Firefox
3."Well, this is embarrassing" message appears

Pop up blocker is a separate issue. Applies when using "Log In" to https://apps.standardlife.com/content/applications/portal/customer/customer_index.html
Actual Results:  
Start up problem I get around by using start new session button.

Pop up blocker problem I cannot get around.

Expected Results:  
Normal Start up of new session.


A new window should have popped up.

I also run Zone Alarm security suite version 9.1.008.000

10 days ago my computer refused to start windows at all. I had to go back to an old restore point and then update all programs. This happened I believe, as a result of installing MS Office 2010 beta. Don't touch it!
