Watir Version: 1.6.2
Browser: IE7

I have notice an issue with attaching to a browser window while that
window is still processing a request.  This causes the browser session
to hang indefinitely.  When registering a user account in our web app,
the registration process sends a verification email to the email
address provided during registration.  I open a second browser window
to navigate to gmail to interact with the verification email and in
this email, there is a verification link.  When I click this link, a
third browser window is opened and it is this window that is
exhibiting the problem.

When this third window first loads, it executes some javascript that
authenticates and redirects.  When I try to attach to this window
while it is doing this, the browser hangs and never completes it
process.  I have added a hard sleep of 3 seconds to the test fixture
to wait to attach and this seems to have helped a bit but the problem
is still intermittent (when before it failed every time).  When I run
this process manually, it executes fine so I can only assume it is the
call to attach() while this third browser window is still processing
the authentication request that is causing the problem.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue and if so what was your
workaround?
