[Bug 259280] [NEW] firefox crashes when I click on CNN video after previously watching a different CNN video

[Stan Osborne]

Public bug reported:

After installing the flash plug-in I am able to watch a CNN news video.
But after watching the first one firefox crashes when I click on the
next video I want to watch.  The problem is easily reproduced.

I can find no crash files in /var/crash or elsewhere.

Firefox 3.0.1 running on

Linux jhaipc-usb-alpha1 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC
2008 i686 GNU/Linux

fully patched, as of tonight, Ubuntu 8.04.01 Client system.
VIA PC3500G Mainboard with 2GB RAM using VIA's chrome9.83-242-u804 (stable) drivers installed.

Let me know if any more information is need.  New tests can be done, or
more crash data collected as crashing this way is easily reproduced.

2nd crash:
Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]"  nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/components/nsBrowserGlue.js :: bg__initPlaces :: line 386"  data: no]
