Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
Unfortunately, that stack trace is missing some elements that will help a lot to solve the problem, so it will be hard for the developers to fix that crash. Can you get us a stack trace with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

Comment 2 Jesse Wiles 2007-01-19 03:58:54 UTC

I did a search on the string "network:///" (without the quotes.

Comment 3 palfrey 2007-01-19 12:48:06 UTC

I can't reproduce that here. If you can reproduce this on your machine, then can you please install the debugging symbols for yelp and get us an improved stacktrace so we can track down this bug. Thanks!

Created attachment 80703 [details]
