discovered while investigating bug 3843 ... Seamonkey seems to often crash after opening the new window generated from selecting file|open|open. *To Repro It is sometimes a little tricky but basically, launch Seamonkey, select file|open and select a local html file. Select Ok/Open as appropriate. A few times I went so far as to select file|new browser window before it crashed. I'd say it's about 75% reproducible across the platforms if not moreso. *Expected Result Selecting file|open and selecting your local document should yield a new browser window with that page loaded. *Actual Result In most cases, after selecting the file, a new window was drawn without the chrome and apprunner crashed a couple seconds later. *Build info This failure was reproduced on MacOS, RHLinux5.2, and WinNTSP4 all with the 1999042608 builds *tidbits The TalkBack ID for the NT crash is DZS49CED (i think, can't read my own writing) the summary reads 'file|open|crash' The entire stdlog from the Mac crash will be included as an attachement to this bug.

possible duplicate of bug 5490?

I have noticed bad behavior when just opening a new browser window. I tend to crash after opening 2 or 3 so I am not sure if it is related to the file|open

Assigned to law. This may indeed be a duplicate. Bill?
