678123 - Plugin container crash creating desktop wallpaper anomalies.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[rufus83]

Attachment: Container crash 2.jpg

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0
Build ID: 20110615151330

Steps to reproduce:

Watching an embedded Youtube video on hackaday.com. 


Actual results:

Once the video finished it remained black, did not change to related videos selection, I attempted to minimize the browser but it was unresponsive. After about 45 seconds it finally minimized and there were corrupted graphics embedded in my desktop wallpaper. My wallpaper was applied through Firefox and was never saved to a permanent location. This may be why it's correlated to the crash.


Expected results:

The video should have stopped playing normally, the browser should have been immediately responsive, and my desktop wallpaper should not have corrupted graphics.

I could not reproduce this issue. 
Reporter, please can you confirm whether this issue is still reproducible when you start Firefox in safe mode or with a clean profile?http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile

I've only had this issue once. I can't seem to get it to happen again either in normal or safe mode. I have had a lot of trouble with the plugin container in the past, though. The description I've provided is the best I can give. It may not be related to Firefox. It may just be that my computer is in dire need of cleanup.
