Attachment: Firefox bactrace - Segmentation fault - /lib/libc.so.6

Problem still exists after upgrading several times to the latest Firefox and XULrunner.

Original crash on start up problem was solved by installing a different FF theme.

Problem now occurs with dialog boxes upon option selection.

File requesters, alert boxes
