I can confirm this bug
Win XP Pro SP2
Mozilla 1.7.2.2004080302
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803
As mentioned by Rich Schroeppel, the home page loads OK, but if I navigate to
"English" or any other article, it crashes. Also, as mentioned by Splarka, it
does not crash if javascript is disabled.
I think it's caused by the current banner "Please read: A personal appeal from
Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales." The banner is absent from the home page and
does not appear when javascript is turned off. The banner is
javascript:goToDonationPage(), redirecting to this URL:
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Appeal2/en?utm_source=2009_Jimmy_Appeal9&utm_medium=sitenotice&utm_campaign=fundraiser2009&target=Appeal2
Mozilla.exe
Error signature
AppName: mozilla.exe
AppVer:1.7.20040.14766
ModName: js3250.dll
ModVer: 4.0.0.0
Offset: 000181c5
js3250.dll, Netscape 32-bit JavaScript Module
located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\mozilla.org\GRE\1.7.2_2004080302
I hope this info helps. Maybe the bug will pass once the banner is gone, but
in the meantime, it's inconvenient to turn off javascript when it's necessary
for so many other sites. If I come across links to Wiki, I have to copy them
into Internet Explorer.
