Build ID: 20110826235807

Steps to reproduce:

I opened Tools->"Manage Content Plug-ins".


Actual results:

I got 100% CPU load with "All plugins" checked. Dialog becomes almost unusable. When "Plugins in use" is checked everything is OK.


Expected results:

This dialog should not cause continuous 100% CPU load in any mode.
Isn't "Manage Content Plug-ins" coming from an Ubuntu extension ?
Do you also get 100% CPU if you open edit\preferences\applications ?
You are right, it comes from "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications" extension.
edit\preferences\applications behaves normally.
kapetr added the following comment to Launchpad bug report 768793:

Are you sure, "Manage Content Plug-ins" is not a part of Firefox itself ?

I  thing to remember, that this feature was a new feature of one of previous versions of FF.

I have thing, that "Manage Content Plug-ins" and "edit\preferences\applications" are two different things.

First is for embedded object and second for handling anchored files.

And if I'm wrong - and this problem is cased by Ubuntus extension - what now ?
I thing "Manage Content Plug-ins" could be useful, if it would work, of course :-)

Yes, because it disappears when I disable ubufox extension.
Closing, as this is add-on related.
