Go to http://www.priceminister.com/offer/buy/117133426/sort0/filter10/portal-2-jeu-xbox-360.html 2. Wait for the page to load. 3. Have firefox 5.0 hanging, with cpu @ 100% for one core. Actual Results: Firefox freezes and needs to be killed. Expected Results: Not freeze on the page and let me buy the product? I'm gonna test it with javascript deactivated. Plug-ins deactivated, and extensions deactivated. Also, the last version of firefox 4.0 with the same configuration did not have this problem.

I forgot to say that this also the case with the page http://www.micromania.fr/vente/achat_portal-2_Jeu-44288-PC.html.
It's strange, I deactivated all the plug-ins and extensions, then reactivated them and loaded one tab with the page that should have make firefox hangs, but it didn't. I must add that when the hang occured firefox was using ~700MB memory with a lot of access to it (+/- 80MB/s).

Works for me on: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:7.0a1) Gecko/20110622 Firefox/7.0a1 (In reply to comment #2) > It's strange, I deactivated all the plug-ins and extensions, then > reactivated them and loaded one tab with the page that should have make > firefox hangs, but it didn't. An add-on could be the reason. Reporter, am I to understand that you no longer have this problem? If yes, please set the resolution of this issue accordingly. Thanks.
I still have the bug. What I didn't figure out yet are the parameters to reproduce it everytime. I think it might show up with a lot of tabs open, high memory usage, and one of the url I gave, though I'm not sure if it's not just something related to one of the plug-in/extensions I have.
I will investigate more deeply next time it shows up.

With adblockplus activated it hangs, with abp deactivated firefox doesn't hang.
And now it doesn't hang anymore, even with abp activated. What a strange frustrating bug.
Hello, I can confirm this bug happens also with firefox 6 x86_64 Windows 7. If I try to go to: http://www.priceminister.com Firefow starts using 100% CPU and a lot of memory. I have tried to deactivate Adblock plus and the problem vanished. So this issue looks to be a firefox 6 / adblock plus interaction problem.
Yes, it's definitely an abp/ff/js interaction problem. The priceminister site is a good testbed.

I don't think so. Closing this one is probably the way to go.
