Tried to open the file from local or from the net, the result is the same: Firefox locks!

Saving locally doesn't have any effect for me. Only the URL shows the problem.

It has no effect here at all. I end up going to Google.

TheOneKEA: Is your network.enableIDN = false ?
My system had a delayed reaction at first (opening a new tab crashed it)
and then after restarting and doing it again ( http://www.security-protocols.com/firefox-death.html )
it crashed imediately 090806 build.
I updated to today's build (which also crashes) & with the disabled IDN, no crash.
I disabled IDN in my user.js as a precaution.
