** Observed with 9/15/99 Win32 M10 build ** The above page has a meta tag=euc-jp. When you access this page, it never seems to finish loading. On the DOS prompt window, I see repeated msgs from the detector looping forever. The problem does not occur if I eliminate: user_pref("intl.charset.detector", "japsm"); line from my prefs.js. Also since this page has a valid meta tag, why is the detector engaged in this case?

Priority: P3 → P1
I'm going to raise the Priority and Severity to P1 and M11, respectively. We need a resolution on this so that we can reply/quote mail with JPN attachment. I believe Bug 13844 is dependent on this fix.
