Running this script did not seem to cause similar problems in Firefox 2.0b1 on Ubuntu Edgy - aka Firefox 1.99+2.0b1+dfsg-1ubuntu3.
There was obvious slowdown during its run, although it didn't completely kill the browser, and I was able to let it run for a good 40 minutes without crashes. I was in subsequent tests able to close the tab/window it was running on, albeit slowly, and also to interact with other tabs/windows. I also did not observe a slow or in any way hampered start when restarting Firefox, although the very long title page was shown in the history list. Can this still be seen in Firefox 1.5.0.5 on Dapper even? -- firefox: Javascript, history.dat & DoS https://launchpad.net/bugs/26778 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
