This has happened to me few times and I think I've finally figured out the
reason. If I click Save Image As... and the folder I'm saving to is still
"loading" (ie. empty), for example in My Documents, which can get cluttered
sometimes, and click Save before Firefox has shown the contest of that folder,
the browser crashes.

I also get this behavior more often then not when using "Save Image As..."

I think this is what I did:

1. Clear your cache (ctrl-shift-del)
2. http://flickr.com/photos/indoloony/1413213981/sizes/o/
3. Right-click (while image is loading). The menu should show:
Show Image
View Image
Copy Image
Copy Image Location...
etc.
4. Select "Save Image As..." before the image has finished loading.

It has only happened once -- I cannot reproduce it at this time.

Have not been able to reproduce the problem on either 3.5.3 (on windows) or 3.0.12 (?) on Linux.

I'm the author of comment 2, and I can't reproduce anymore either.
