Opening pages that end in .gif makes Firefox not respond. Viewing .gif files inbedded in webpages are 100% fine
Hello, my Firefox has been having problems for the last couple of days.
If I view an animated gif on a web page, the thing loads just fine.
If I open up a page such as
http://i.minus.com/ilk8dsFwElcqy.gif
My Firefox is will freeze, get Not Responding. My Firefox.exe CPU Usage (Task manager) will spike up to 50%. After about 5 seconds, the .gif will load and everything will work just fine.
I tested with all add-ons off in safe mode. No luck.
I tested with an all-new profile. No luck.
I tested it with a saved .gif that was opened via Firefox. No luck.
I tested the same .gif in Chrome and it loads just fine.
Is there anything you guys could recommend me trying? It's not really a devastating bug since everything can still be viewable (eventually) but I wouldn't mind it getting fixed.
