IceCat stability vs Firefox Linux/Windows

[Dmitri Gabinski]

Hi!

I've recently discovered IceCat, downloaded and installed (actually, just 
unpacked) on openSUSE Linux 10.3. The first version I've used was 3.0.1, now 
it's 3.0.2. I also use Firefox 3.0.1 on openSUSE and Firefox 3.0.3 on 
Windows 2000 on the same machine, and Firefox 3.0.3 on Windows XP on another 
machine.

The matter is that with one particular site (www.loveplanet.ru) IceCat shows 
much worse stability as compared to Firefox. In fact, clicking almost any 
link there results in crashes of IceCat in 50% of cases. FF on Linux crashes 
sometimes, and on Windows — almost never.

Questions:
1) Is that about IceCat vs Firefox, or Linux vs Windows?
2) How can I make a good bug report? Is there any guidance available 
specific for IceCat? I realize, the information, I've provided, is of no big 
value as such, but I haven't had any experience with testing browsers. With 
other application types, you can submit a test case document, but with 
browsers you can't — you just provide a link, right? And I can't say, any 
particular link ensures 100% repeatable crashes, just in, yes, 50% of cases.

Best regards,

Dmitri Gabinski
