Mozilla is very reliably crashing when downloading news articles from
news.mozilla.org.  It always seems to happen on the second news group for which
articles are downloaded.  It also seems necessary to read at least one article
in the first group before downloading the second.  I created a new profile to no
avail: Mozilla still crashed.

To reproduce:
1) Download articles for a group on news.mozilla.org.
2) Read at leaast 1 article.
3) Download articles for another group.  Mozilla should crash at this point.

Could you test on a new build please?  I noticed you're using a build from the
15th...I tried to reproduce but couldn't, I'm on Windows 2000.  What Service
Pack do you have on your machine?
Sorry, I slipped when I typed the build number.  I am really using 122105.  I
have NT4 with service pack 6a.
accepting.

alecf and I both see this.

Status: UNCONFIRMED → ASSIGNED
Ever confirmed: true
prob a dup of the nsWebShell::OnStateChange topcrash...
Severity: normal → critical
Keywords: crash
I really this is a DUP of 63529, which is about crashing using a null pointer 
check in doQueryInterface.
