This seems to be related to Firefox hanging when it wa trnasferring my IE6 links
to the bookmarks folder.  Whe that happened, my links simply disappeared from IE
and were not incorporated into Firefox (then the pre-release v1).  How can I
recover my links and get Firefox to stop generating this error?

Windows XP also produces an error... "firefox.exe has encountered an error and
needs to be..." blah

It was hapening in nightlies, but I assumed it would have been fixed (I
should've filed a big -_-)

I get the same error message. I am using XP Pro with service pack 2 and all
updates installed. Firefox was fine for about 2 months then this error msg
started to occur. I have downloaded a fresh version and installed but the
problem is still there. Since this first started to occur Firefox now very often
freezes the whole system and I to manually shutdown to clear it.
