Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 1.0.4-2
Followup-For: Bug #306537

Hi Eric, I also experience firefox dying silently several times a month for
quite some time.  In my case, I never have more than 6-12 tabs open 
concurrently, usually only 3 or 4.  No extensions are installed.

Sometimes ff dies silently in the background while I'm away or using
another application, sometimes it dies when clicking "Save link as...," 
sometimes it dies when clicking a link.

I can not reproduce this.  However, ff is more likely to crash after
using a plugin in the same session; mplayer, xpdf or flash.  I usually
disable flashplayer by moving its files; turning it on only when needed
to view a particular website.

Deleting XUL.mfasl after a crash seems to restabilize ff quickly.

This bug is probably another example of Bugzilla 234598  Firefox crashes 
randomly.
