Fixed. There were two crashes (fixed one, and there was another). Both crashes were unbalanced NS_ADDREF/NS_RELEASE errors.

Verified fixed on 1.12.99 Mac OS build. Thanks, John! Specifically, I verified these scenarios: 1. Viewed http://wildworld.com. (redirect to http://freedom2surf.net took place.) 2. Viewed the text snippet as provided in the bug report. Verified that Viewer didn't crash on the redirect to a nonexistent page. 3. Viewed the text snippet as provided in the bug report, after creating an "index1.htm" page on my desktop. Verified that viewer properly handled the redirect to a valid page. Also verified on 1.12.99 Linux build (just went to http://wildworld.com); redirect to http://freedom2surf.net took place, although the page did not load. (Unrelated issue, as it doesn't load in a new browser window, anyway. ;)
