From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.0 i686; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010105 BuildID: 2001010517 Going to http://www.foxtrot.com/comics will occasionally crash mozilla when you hit the 'cancel' button on the shockwave plugin download dialog. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to http://www.foxtrot.com/comics 2.This will crash it sometimes, but you might have to hit 'previous' a couple of times. I *BELIEVE* it occurs when there are 2 different advertisments requiring the shockwave/flash plugin, however it happens too fast for me to confirm that. Actual Results: All browser windows crash. Expected Results: view the page. I've tried to install the shockwave/flash plugin, and when I followed the steps (copy libflashplayer.so and Shockwaveflash.class to /plugins) mozilla took FOREVER to load up (like 5 minutes), so I deleted them. I took a look around the bug database, and this problem is different from bugid's: 56112, 35916, 57012, 58128, 62672, and 65389. Those seem to all deal with issues within, or communication with an existing shockwave/flash plug in. I don't have one installed at all (apparently). This is a clean install of mozilla 0.7.
