Description darton 2012-07-04 12:47:54 UTC
Description of problem:
Firefox hangs opening a specific address: http://www.rg.ru/2012/07/04/bank.html 

It doesn't matter if there's something in other tabs, it doesn't matter if you enter the URL directly or follow a hyperlink.

Starting firefox -safe-mode doesn't solve the issue. page 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Name        : firefox
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 13.0
Release     : 1.fc16

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open firefox
2. navigate to http://www.rg.ru/2012/07/04/bank.html
  
Actual results:

Firefox starts loading, draws an animated circular "loading" icon and shows the page title. In a second or two, firefox stops repainting its window and responding to any user events.

Expected results:

The page is loaded and displayed.

Additional info: none I can think of, sorry.

Can you attach a stactrace of firefox when it's frozen? See:

ugh, that seems to work fine under the current version of Firefox. I don't know if the page changed or FF changed, but now it's gone.
