When you start from http://europe.cnn.com/ and then click on the sci-tech news column on the left it causes Mozilla to crash and take all Mozilla related components with it. This action works fine on IE 5.5

Attached file Faulty HTML Source —
Bug is caused by faulty html on CNN.com's side. Inside the html a new <html></html> was opened up with the same stylesheets being loaded again. We've removed the bad code and the bugby behavior seems to have stopped.
Thanks Daniel. Still, we shouldn't crash. Sending bug over to harishd to have a look (testcase).
