This bug has been discovered by our Mozmill testruns and is logged as bug 790218. It can only be seen on Windows 8, so I assume a new or changed API is causing problems. Steps: 1. Start Firefox 2. Open http://mozqa.com/data/firefox/popups/popup_trigger.html?count=2 3. Ensure that you get a notification bar stating that 2 popups have been blocked 4. Open the page info window and allow popups for this site 5. Open a new tab and load the page from step 2 again 6. Notice that the page doesn't get loaded Not sure if this is a regression but I will check this in a bit.
That's a regression in current Firefox 16.0 Beta builds. Firefox 15.0.1 is working fine and the first time I can see this failure is in Beta 3. PASS: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/cad589192f3c FAIL: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/de3f06a549de Pushlog: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/pushloghtml?fromchange=cad589192f3c&tochange=de3f06a549de Also when you are trying to close Firefox afterward a zombi process keeps hanging around.
Summary: Firefox doesn't finish loading a page if popup's are allowed → Firefox doesn't finish loading a page if popup's are allowed and leaving behind a zombi process
On Aurora this has been regressed between 20120906042009 and 20120907042009. PASS: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/rev/c2cc63c864e4 FAIL: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/rev/41eab5a0e537 Pushlog: https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/pushloghtml?fromchange=c2cc63c864e4&tochange=41eab5a0e537 Comparing both pushlogs there are only two bugs in common which are bug 774633 and bug 774607. Bobby, is bug 774633 the problematic one? Raising severity to critical based on the zombie process which doesn't let people restart Firefox without killing the process manually in the process manager.

This is almost certainly a dupe of bug 789773. Can you verify with the builds from the latest try run?
Product: Toolkit → Firefox
(In reply to Bobby Holley (:bholley) from comment #3) > This is almost certainly a dupe of bug 789773. Can you verify with the > builds from the latest try run? Yes, the following try server build works: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/try-builds/bobbyholley@gmail.com-0fd18ad6dd59/try-win32/ Feel free to dupe if you think it's one or mark as dependent on if it should be verified separately.
I think this is pretty clearly a dupe. Presumably if the problem persists, you guys will notice it? ;-)

Henrik, did you reproduce this on a Virtual machine or on a Hardware machine? We tried on our hardware machines and we could not reproduce.
It's our Win8 VM we are making use of for Mozmill CI. There is no need for you to again verify this fix. At least not for that bug.
