occasional soft freeze
Hi, I'm using FF 1.5.0.2 on Win2k SP 3 and occasionally, with no
trigger I have yet discovered, FF displays these symptoms:
* cannot click on a link
* cannot click on a different tab
* cannot click in the URL field
* cannot click on a link in the Links bar
* cannot click on Reload Page or Back, or any other highlighted icons
* CAN close a tab, but the same symptoms occur on the next tab under
* CAN close the window using the X in the top right
* CAN move window focus from & to a FF window
I usually have two windows open, each with multiple tabs, and the issue
occurs on both at the same time. I notice in Task Manager that when I
have closed both windows, there is still a firefox.exe process running,
which I must kill in Task Manager before I can restart FF.
I have four extensions:
* Talkback
* IE Tab
* Firebug
* DOM Inspector
Any thoughts much appreciated!

Things to try:
- Use in safe-mode. (to make sure it is not a problem with extensions)
- Try with empty profile (to make sure profile isn't corrupted)
- Uninstall, remove install directory remains manually, reinstall (to
make sure installation hasn't corrupted, for example during upgrade)
