Thanks, Marc. This crash is probably related to your Flash plug-in. Can you
please check if upgrading to the latest Flash plug-in at
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/ solves the problem?

ok.  updated from some 6.x version to 7.0 r14.  can't repro the problem any
more.  we REALLY need to get cracking on bug 156493.  i shouldn't lose all the
state in my myriad browser windows just because i'm running a buggy plugin :(

thanx!
