looks like this only happens on amd64 machines.

Doesn't crash here... 3.5.3.

Might it be that for those that it crashes you miss a plugin of some sort? I've noticed earlier that my konq crashed when I missed the flash plugin on pages that used it...

For me konq 3.5.2 crashed only when Javascript is enabled.

For me konqueror (3.5.3) doesn't crash on 'microsoft.com'.

It seems to me that it is a CFLAGS issue, see http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123791

Try to recompile kdelibs with '-O2' instead of '-Os' , restart kde to reload all the libs
and check if konqueror still crashes for you on 'microsoft.com'

Regards,
hothead

When firing it up from the console with 'konqueror http://micro$oft.com' it crashes.

Trying to load it from gdb with that argument, and it WORKS!!

Almost as if someone just doesn't want this particular bug traced ^^

For me it also crashes... but only for the first time. If I try to reenter microsoft.com everything works. Weird, really. I'm using Konq 3.5.3 with -O2 flag.

well doodes, its pretty useless to discuss here further.
it is a problem the KDE doodes might have to fix.
so we should bother them - it is not a gentoo problem.

anyway:

[quote=lithium3141]Update: At one point, Konqueror had the basic page layout loaded, but crashed before it could display any images or text, so I had some blue boxes in the browser for a split second before the crash occurred. Judging from that and the slight delay before the crash occurs, I'm thinking maybe either Microsoft is misusing some part of HTML/CSS, Konqueror's implementation of some obscure feature is broken, or a combination (Microsoft misuses the part that Konquerer mis-implements). Knowing Microsoft, I'd say the former is far more likely :lol:

[/quote]

Someone should try out a 'doze box and see it it crashes IE

[hey, its just as possible. They could have a script kill an out-dated version of IE to force you to update. Think about it!]

Seems to me it's related to Konq 3.5.x:

- Crashes on: Konqueror 3.5.2 on KDE 3.5.2 (x86_64)
- Runs fine on: Konqueror 3.4.3 on KDE 3.4.3 (x86)

Kind regards

Hi all,

I'm running 686, have -O2 in my cflags, and am running konqueror 3.5.2, and, yes, microsoft.com crashes on me. In addition, some news stories on cnn.com crash, too.

Best,

Alex

No crashes here, tried 3.5.4 on both x86 and amd64.

I can also confirm a crash with KDE 3.5.2 on i686-32 (Prescott specific code) with Os optimisation.

JavaScript seems to be the culprit, yabbadabbadont. Flash/Java plugins didn't behave strangely even with JavaScript disabled.
