95656 - Freeze when selecting bookmarks menu item

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Tomislav Ribicic]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010802
BuildID:    2001080214

When selecting Bookmarks menu item, the machine seemingly hangs. However, trying
'force quit' asks if I want to quit 'Dragthing' (www.dragthing.com). If I do,
Mozzila comes back to life and the Bookmarks menu opens up. I dont think the
Dragthing is the culprit here because it is a well tested Mac utility which does
not have issues with any other known software.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have Dragthing 4.0 running
2.Start Mozilla
3.Click on the Bookmarks menu

Actual Results:  System freeze (the pointer still moves)

Expected Results:  Open the bookmarks menu

Tomislav, this works for me using DragThing 4.0.2 and Mozilla 0.9.3 (2001080214). It's 
possible either Mozilla or DragThing is responsible for causing your hangs, or something 
else entirely.

Do some additional testing with your Extensions configuration; boot using the "Mac OS 9 
All" and "Base" sets and try to duplicate this problem.

Also, Moz 0.9.3 shipped with an incomplete Component Registry file, which caused 
TalkBack to not work; quit Mozilla, trash that file, and restart Mozilla to build a new 
Registry so TB starts working again. (See bug 94908.)

I'm going to mark this WFM for the time being. If you can reproduce more consistently, 
please don't hesitate to reopen.
