mozilla 0.9.1 hangs?

[Brian May <bam@debian.org>]

Hello,

Sometimes when I configure Mozilla to use a proxy server, it just
hangs during downloads.

Other programs work fine (eg. w3m and netscape) with the same proxy
settings (squid and/or wwwoffle server).  Sometimes it comes up with a
message "Resolving host <remotehost>" (or similar), but I know that
DNS is working fine on this network, and that can't be a problem
(however, with a proxy server, it shouldn't need to do this anyway).

If I disable the proxy server, everything works fine. However,
sometimes it hangs without the proxy server, and sometimes it doesn't
hang with the proxy server.


Questions:

Any ideas what is wrong?

Is this a known bug?

This is a new computer with a new mail setup, will this mail get sent
to debian-user?

Will the sky fall?
