Hello!

(Windows XP Pro SP2, SM 2.0.8)

   I go to this address:
http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do?zipcode=33570

   Then I look through the evening's listings and if there's a show I'm
interested in, I right click and open it in a new tab.  When I'm done
I usually have four or five extra tabs open.  I go to each tab and
save the page locally.  This is where the problem is.  Within two or
three saves, SM will freeze up in the Save As dialog box.  Usually
just clicking in the File name area will cause it.  At this point, the
only thing I can do is go to task manager (where XP says SM is running
fine) and kill it.  I then run it again, wait for the tabs to load in
and continue saving until it freezes up again.  This is a real pain in
the A$$!  The Save As dialog box doesn't operate normally in other
ways when saving from that site.  For example, if I type in a new name
and press enter, it highlights the name instead of accepting the enter
as the Save button being pressed.

   There are many other web sites where I save pages this way.
Zap2it.com is the only place I've found where this happens.

I have no idea why it's happening but I can confirm it. Tested on SeaMonkey 2.0.8 and Firefox 3.6.10 on Windows 7 Pro.

1.  Go go link above, select a service
2.  Open four show descriptions in new tabs
3. After saving one or two tabs CPU usage jumps to 50% and memory usage keeps climbing, falling climbing etc. and the app appears frozen. I can select other program windows but cannot re-select FF/SM. A couple of times during testing my entire system froze for several minutes. I couldn't select anything. I finally hit SHIFT-CTRL-ESC and that forced Task Manager to have focus. I then manually killed the FF/SM process.

Does not happen with Opera 10.61.
