[Alexander Sack]

ok ... this will be our new master crash for nsFilePicker::Show variant.

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Medium => High

** Summary changed:

- Firefox Crash [@gtk_style_realize] [@nsFilePicker::Show]
+ MASTER Firefox Crash [@gtk_style_realize] [@nsFilePicker::Show]

** Description changed:

- Segfault when clicking back after failing to watch a video.
- 
- DistroRelease: Ubuntu 6.10
- Package: firefox 2.0+0dfsg-0ubuntu3
- 
- Description of the problem:
- I tried to watch the video on http://macslow.thepimp.net/?p=26 by clicking on it but received an error message that the plugin could not play the video by streaming it and that I should try and download it first. I clicked the back button pressed the right mouse button to do save as and after a few seconds of high CPU usage firefox crashed.
- 
- Steps to reproduce:
- 1. Visit http://macslow.thepimp.net/?p=26 .
- 2. Click on the picture near the top.
- 3. Wait for the totem plugin to say it can't play that video.
- 4. Click back.
- 5. Press the right mouse button over the picture and choose Save Link As...
- 
- Expected result:
- To be able to download the video to disk.
- 
- Actual result:
- Crash.
- 
- Additional information:
- Almost certainly a duplicate of bug #70875 .
