Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

I'm a php developer.

I was using pchart for create onthefly a png (with alfa channel) image from php

So I call the php and I see the image.

HEADER OF THE PAGE sent as IMAGE/PNG with this instruction

  // Render the picture
  $Test->Stroke();

IF I made a DRAG AND DROP of the image on my desktop i have a complete freeze of the machine.

All of my monitor (2) are black and caps lock on my keyboard don't work.

Nothing to do. only hardware reset.

I have an ATI driver

After the reboot i have retry the same thing and again i have frozen again the sistem. ( 2 times on 2 )
