Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17 i686; en-US; rv:0.9.1+) Gecko/20010613
BuildID:    2001061321

Typing an invalid URL in the URL bar and hitting 'Return' crashes mozilla.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try the invalid adress above

Actual Results:  Crash

Expected Results:  No crash

Didn't happen on build 2001061221
wfm 2001061308 linux

I get "http://www.nonsense.nonsense not found" dialog (normal) but no crash.
Be careful with saying "works for me" on this bug. If you have a proxy,
generally the proxy will serve you an HTML page saying that the url is not
valid, which is not an invalid url from Mozilla's point of view.

That said, I can't reproduce this on 2001060712/mac OS 9. But it happened a lot
in Mozilla 0.7 or 0.8, as I recall.
