Public bug reported:

Some pages that load java take a while to load. I have noticed that many
of them shut down Firefox completely. The one common denominator I have
found is that I was scrolling through the page while the page was still
loading and a java applet was loading.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008050509
Firefox/3.0b5

Ubuntu 8.04  - the Hardy Heron

Firefox Package:   
Installed: 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3
  Candidate: 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3
  Version table:
 *** 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

When scrolling a page while loading, I expect the page to load normally.
Most pages do. I do not expect the browser to shut down without warning
which is what happened. No freeze, just an immediate shutdown.
