Bugs :
K-Meleon Web Browser Forum
Apologies if this has already been posted.
Had a search result in Mozilla Support Forum > Firefox, and decided to try the parent folder, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions. As soon as the page had (almost completely) rendered, K-M crashed gracefully, with a notice that it had stopped working and would I close it please?.
I tried the page a few times, yes it's reproducible. I tried it with Pop-up Blocker disabled, same result.
Crash Report may have worked, dunno where the log is.
Windows Event Viewer gives me:
XML view:
The child page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/916646 works OK.

It doesn't crash for me.(Win7/KM_74-31)
Did you try with the default settings?
Maybe it's an extension that doesn't play nice.
Del cache. If a normal page crashes. Yahoo mail answers.
Deleted the Cache, went to the original child page, and maybe I should have restarted K-M. Crash, exactly the same as the last. Pointing at xul.dll.
W7HPx64 SP1/K-M74-24, compat disabled, Crash Report, custom New Age useragent "K-Meleon: 74.24 (Windows 7: NT 6.1; Mozilla; Gecko; rv: 24.3)"; SSL2&3 disabled, TLS1.0, 1.1, 1.2 enabled. Otherwise bog standard.

I have rechecked now with KM_74-24 too. No crash.
security.tls.version.min is set to 1 as in KM_74-31.
Wonder if the site will crash KM for other people as well.
Update.
After thorough testing, it seems the first page on https://support.mozilla.org/ doesn't crash K-M. Only the second page, no matter which one, backwards or forwards, will crash the browser. And every time the faulting module is xul.dll.
This time around I had enabled compat. And no, Crash Report doesn't pick it.

I tried to find the point of failure using Dependency Walker, but due to the SideBySide bug at http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?3,130132, it failed.
Dep.Walker was brutal: there are bits missing, so it can't be started for analysis.
So we have one possible bug which cannot be tracked down due to another unfixed (probably compile-time) bug.
