Mozilla freezes on Find

I'm running Mozilla Debian Package 1.2.1-3 and it has spontaneously started to hang whenever I try to search (Ctrl-F) for text on a webpage or when I try to open a PDF, PS, RealAudio, etc. link.
My guess is that Mozilla is having some sort of problem bringing up the dialog boxes for Find and for Open As... since Mozilla is hanging before bringing either one up. (Incidentally, the only Plugin I have enabled is libnullplugin.so.)

I am going to give you a alternitive answer because I just tried the find command on Phoenix on my Win Xp and it worked. So I recommend that you install Phoenix which is made by the same people as mozilla. They have a version for Linux so everything should go fine. =)

I'm sure you meant that well, but the find command works on Mozilla on Win NT. Following your logic I should therefore never have had a problem with "find" or with PDF links on Linux, but I still get a stuck process regardless of the logic. =) Oh well. Anyway, I'm removing my current Mozilla and reinstalling. I'll post again if that doesn't fix it.

Uninstall/reinstall fixed the problem. Yeah!
