<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>I was just alerted to this bug:<br><a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1219242" target="_blank">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1219242</a><br><br></div>It
looks like an update, released Monday, to Dell's Protected Workspace v5
application sandboxing software is causing crashes in Firefox. <br><br>While
the number of crashes isn't very high (yet), this crash is particularly
troubling because the presence of Protected Workspace implies a
computer is A) a work/domain computer and B) is locked down with regard
to which applications can be run.<br><br>At the moment we've seen just
440 crashes of this nature (and growing). Yet it was the #1 crash issue
reported on our support forums today- and the posters appear to be
admins/IT people who are (understandably) upset that employees can't
perform their jobs. As updates are rolled out this issue may become a
serious burden to our support community.<br><br></div><div>Does anyone have a contact at Dell or access to a copy of Protected Workspace v5?<br></div><div><br></div>Crashes for this bug can be tracked here:<br> <a href="https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/search/?signature=%7Esboxdll.dll&signature=%7Esboxhost.dll&date=%3E2015-01-01&_facets=signature&_facets=uptime&_facets=platform&_facets=user_comments&_facets=version&_facets=useragent_locale&_columns=date&_columns=signature&_columns=product&_columns=version&_columns=build_id&_columns=platform#facet-version" target="_blank">https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/search/?signature=~sboxdll.dll&signature=~sboxhost.dll&date=%3E2015-01-01&_facets=signature&_facets=uptime&_facets=platform&_facets=user_comments&_facets=version&_facets=useragent_locale&_columns=date&_columns=signature&_columns=product&_columns=version&_columns=build_id&_columns=platform#facet-version</a><br><br></div>Thanks,<br><div><br><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr">Mark Schmidt<br><div><div dir="ltr"><span><font size="1">Senior Firefox Community Support Lead<br></font></span></div><div><span><font size="1"><a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/marksc" target="_blank">sumo</a>|<a href="https://twitter.com/MarkSchmidty" target="_blank">twitter</a>|<a href="https://www.facebook.com/MarkSchmidty" target="_blank">facebook</a>|IRC: <b>marksc </b>(#sumo #firefox)<br></font></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
