Description Peter Scott 2016-02-04 15:55:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
Visiting a pdf link such as http://peterscott.eu/rants/classwar.pdf
hangs Seamonkey.

2.39


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. "File" > "Open Web Location"
2. enter "http://peterscott.eu/rants/classwar.pdf" or similar


Actual results:
Seamonkey hangs
journalctl gives error messages

Seamonkey offers to download the file or opens it with a pdf plugin
like Firefox does.

Comment 1 Dmitry Butskoy 2016-02-04 20:12:31 UTC 
Could you test it with safe mode? (Run in cmdline "seamonkey --safe-mode").

Does cache clearing help?
Comment 2 Peter Scott 2016-02-04 22:17:42 UTC 
I did those. Neither helped

Thanks
Comment 3 Dmitry Butskoy 2016-03-20 22:13:09 UTC 
Works for me with SeaMonkey-2.40 and the example above.
