using build 2001082706 (linux)

On the top of page http://slate.msn.com/Features/bushisms/bushisms.asp are links
to a video.
Clicking these will make the browser crash with a segmentation fault error.
The content of the link is (including headers): 

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: Cougar 4.1.0.3920
Content-Type: video/x-ms-asf
Content-Length: 140

I use the talkback version but talkback did not get activated.
(Button 3 -> save link as ... works though)
Severity: normal → critical
Keywords: crash
WFM 2001082706 -- clicking the links prompts me to download the file.  Do you
have plugins installed?  (I don't.)
WFM 20010826 Linux
Keywords: stackwanted
Works with SPARC/Solaris 2001081510.
The Linux 2001082706 crashes here also when I try to access a copy of the file
that I put up at my local http server. Accessing the same file via a file://  URL
results in the disply of
   "<html><body></body></html>"

I have no plugins installed (except the null plugin).


Tried with build 2001082708/Linux: crash, but talkback got invoked: TB34616230Y
WFM linux 2001083108, but I have no plugins and a save dialog is shown. Seems
like a plugin issue, but what plugins do you people have? 
As I said, I have no plugins installed. I got this on two completely different linux
installations, but on the second installation talkback doesnt get initialized.

I also got a crash when clicking on a link to a file with "tgz" or "gz" extension,
so i suspect this has to do with handling extensions.
Does it always happen or is it intermittent? Can you run mozilla through
gdb and send us a stack trace (a 'where') when it crashes?
CC Stephend for the Talkback (TB34616230Y)
