Hi, I do not reproduce with Version: 4.2.3.3 Build ID: 882f8a0a489bc99a9e60c7905a60226254cb6ff0 Ubuntu 13.10. The document is loaded in the browser and LibreOffice applications don't freeze - Sophie

TESTING
Linux Mint 17
LO 4.2.6.2

Followed the steps and could not reproduce.
Preview displays as link to document in local page on Firefox 31.

I confirmed this bug in Writer, Impress, Draw, Math, Base and Calc.  LO becomes unresponsive and task manager must be used to close LO.
 
I'm changing status to highest blocker since this bug always causes a freeze.

I tested using:

x86-64
WIN 8
Version: 4.2.5.2
Build ID: 61cb170a04bb1f12e77c884eab9192be736ec5f5

bug 76845 and bug 76844 may be the same issue. One freezes at step "Finish", one at "Preveiw in browser".
Added as see also.

(This is an automated message.)

LibreOffice development currently prioritizes bugs with the so called MAB (most annoying bugs) -- as this bug has not run through that process (including writing a short rationale for this bug being a candidate and other who are watching the tracker bug silently approving that rationale etc.) its priority is set to high. Note this is effectively no change in the urgency assigned to this bug, as we are currently not making a difference between high and highest and severity is untouched.

You can find out more about MABs and how the process works by contacting libreoffice qa on irc:

The QA wiki page also gives you hints on how to get in contact with the team (if IRC fails you, your next best choice is the mailing list):
