Steps to Reproduce:
1. In the proxy preferences i set the automatic proxy configuration script.
2. In the adress bar i type an invalid http: request, or an invalid site that
does not have hte http:// prefix.
Actual Results:
complete mozilla browser freeze.
Expected Results:
No freeze, let other tabs/browser windows continue what they were doing. just
freeze the windows with the wrong "look like an url but not exactlty."
or give some kind of error.
Note 1: This bug was was visible to me in 1.4b since this was the first version
where NTLM support is available.
Note: internet explorer (6) behaves the same, but it times out after some time
(hmm...)
Note: if i do not use the automatic proxy configuration, but type in the url of
the current proxy in ip format (144.a.b.c) it gives an correct error message.
(This could be a problem in the scripting engine under automatic configuration ?)
