Package: iceweasel
Version: 6.0.2-1
Severity: important
The "Save As" dialog sometimes makes Iceweasel freeze after some time,
when it has been open for several dozens of seconds. A consequence is
that data that have not been saved yet (e.g. in forms) are lost.
This is always reproducible with the following steps (note that I'm
using "focus follows mouse"):
1. Rename the ".mozilla" directory to start with a fresh profile.
2. Start iceweasel. The current page is "about:home".
3. Select "File" → "Save Page As..." (the "Save As" dialog opens).
4. Move the mouse pointer to another area so that Iceweasel looses the
focus, and move it back to the "Save As" dialog after some time.
5. If nothing bad occurs, repeat step 4 (at least on my machine, this
loop is finite).
I get a dialog:
Warning: Unresponsive script
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding.
You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script
will complete.
Script: resource:///modules/NetworkPrioritizer.jsm:175
[ ] Don't ask me again
[Stop script] [Continue]
Whether I click on [Stop script] or [Continue], the dialog disappears
but Iceweasel is completely frozen. I can see a zombie process:
