[INVALID] Possible bug in ABE anonymization?

Noticed that my SeaMonkey's graphics were totally frozen, but the browser (and the running Flash) seemed completely responsive... nothing I did would unfreeze it, until a couple minutes later it decided it's time to unfreeze - but there were a bunch of error messages like this one in the Error Console?

Code: Select all

Overriding failed (2147500037) redirect callback for 12: https://r19---sn-vgqsen7z.googlevideo.com/crossdomain.xml -> https://r19---sn-vgqsen7z.googlevideo.com/crossdomain.xml - 2
I think that URL is an object-subrequest.

I have not seen messages like this before now.
These messages consistently appeared immediately after ABE anonymization log messages.
Is this a bug in ABE anonymization and would it cause the "graphics freeze"?
(Nothing unusual in the system console, and nothing else unusual in the Error Console.)

NoScript 2.6.9.26rc3
SeaMonkey '2.35pre' (like Firefox 38.0.1)
Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion"
HWA disabled

I don't believe it's related to the graphic freeze.
That one is a debug message from the work-around for bug 1171407, and tells ABE is taking care of it.
As you can read in the bug report, it seems to have been (accidentally) fixed in Aurora.

Thanks for that explanation. Guess it's a browser bug... but these kinds of browser bugs, when I've seen them turn up, usually disappear after one or two upgrades...
