Used the leak-gauge.pl script that dbaron created to determine this.

1) Homepage set as about:blank
2) all extensions disabled
3) default theme
4) Start firefox, type in mail.yahoo.com (make sure you are on the beta for yahoo! mail first via 'http://mrd.mail.yahoo.com/landing' you might have to be a Yahoo! Mail Plus subscriber)
5) type in user name/password, after login complete and you see the inbox close firefox and run perl script.

Output when ran three times:

Dupe or depend on Bug 206520 ?
Could you retest in tomorrow's trunk build (perhaps even after comparing to today's)?

If it still exists, leak-monitor ( http://dbaron.org/mozilla/leak-monitor ) may provide some useful information.
leak-monitor extension doesn't alert me of any leaks following the steps on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061117 Minefield/3.0a1 ID:2006111704 [cairo]

Can't test with the leak-gauge.pl perl script though so I can't confirm if this is still present or not.
in FF 2?
Can we close this 6 years old bug? Yahoo! Mail beta has been refreshed many times since this bug report.
I think we can safely close this bug. Adding to MemShrink.
Whiteboard: [MemShrink]
It seems we have problems also with the latest version of Yahoo! Mail, marking this as duplicate of the newer bug.
