Since about RC2 upwards my versions of Mozilla seem to crash on certain web
sites and I really don't know why. At first I thought it might be because I
tried to copy across my plugins from version to version. I tried removing these
and still the problem happened on certain sites. I couldn't tell you whether it
is sites that use a certain type of code or technology because I never quite get
far enough to see :-) 

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try (for example) http://www.skysports.com
2. Wait and see
3. Watch it crash (If its going to crash you'll know within the first few
seconds of it loading the page)


Actual Results:  Crashes

Expected Results:  To crash

Reporter:
Do you copy the Java plugin or do you correctly symlink it ?
Mozilla crashes if you copy it and Java tries to start.

Maybe your profile has been corrupted? Have you tried with a clean profile? (I
know this wouldn't fix the root cause but at least we'd know why).
