#3898 firehose hangs in mozilla 1.7

[David Collier-Brown]

Selecting firehose in Mozill 1.7 (SPARC Solaris) hangs
after displaying the top screenfull of the page, with
the status line saying "Read www.google-analytics.com"
and the the progress bar at about 95% complete. Cursor
is a pointing-finger (link) cursor, and moves normally,
mozilla-bin is using about 96% of cpu for several
minutes without any result. I can get a truss (strace)
listing if desired, this is completely reproducable.

Firehose last was know to work perfectly 3 weeks ago,
before went on vacation.
