On an existing site, I can access pages WITHOUT the word "admin" in the url path:

http://localhost/mysite/user/login
http://localhost/mysite/node/add
http://localhost/mysite/forum
http://localhost/mysite/search/node
http://localhost/mysite/aggregator

But when trying to access any of the "admin" functions on the black overlay bar (WITH the word "admin" in the path):

http://localhost/mysite/admin/config
http://localhost/mysite/admin/appearance
http://localhost/mysite/admin/modules

I get this connection error on Firefox:
"The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading"

I am logged in as an admin (user 1).

Does anyone have an idea what is going on and how to fix this ??

UPDATE: Further investigation shows that it was a theme that causes the crash. When the theme was removed, everything works fine. When the theme was put back, it causes the crash. It's the theme, but I don't know exactly what in the theme causes the problem. Weird.

I've found at least two modules who suffer constant connection reset issues because of the way to description was created in the .info file. Example: #1162938: Coder breaks D7, causing Connection Reset errors
