I anyone having trouble with Firefox crashing lately? I'm quietly browsing away when bam - it just disappears and I get the option to reopen it. It's only recent, it could be either the recent FF updates or 10.4.10.

I had Firefox crash yesterday for the first time, uuummmm, ever, I was trying to remove an icon from the toolbar, opened the customize window and it froze, I'm running 2.0.0.5.

Yeah, that's the same version I am, and that's the sort of random crash I get. I'm slowly switching to Camino, FF is starting to suffer more problems lately.

I wonder if it's something with the latest update? I have not used it enough yet to have any issues as I use Safari and Camino mostly.

No crashes for me in 2.0.0.5.

And I regularly run 2 copies of Firefox (in 2 different Firefox profiles).

I have FF running almost constantly on my MacBook, and it'll crash occasionally, perhaps every couple of days. It's certainly since the 2.0.0.5 update, but 2.0.0.4 may have been doing it too. I think I'll just switch to Camino - despite it's limitations it seems a better app than FF.
