Summary: Firefox crashes on opening the quoted URL
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youtube
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Well, I'm really confused because such thing has never happened to me before.
A few days ago I was explaining to my friend the meaning of 'You-Tube' because
I remember the site starting as a platform for drawing with mouse-controlled
color tubes. Well, today I decided to find a link to show him how it looked
like - and started my search from the wikipedia page
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youtube".
Unfortunatelly, all I could glance at was the sign for locked page, the logo
and data table starting on the right and the first few sentences. Then the
browser window disappeared and Mozilla Crash Report appeared, saying "We're
Sorry
Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows
when it restarts."
4 things in addition:
- My browser version is 3.5.4 with 4 extensions only: AdBlockPlus, ForecastFox,
ImageZoom and TabMixPlus.
- It didn't restore the exact set of tabs from before the crash which according
to my experience means that the crash was very heavy and quick. (The only
heaviest thing is when it doesn't offer any session to restore at all.)
- I opened and read in tabs other pages on "http://en.wikipedia.org" before and
after that.
- While I was searching the right place to tell this story, I found one more
page, that causes FF to crash - "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Wales".
Well, all I want is to not be afraid what will happen when I'm opening a page
from wikipedia.org. :)
With respect,
Petia Petrova
