 I get this about 5 - 6 times a day. Not sure what is causing it. But when I
restart all my saved channels are gone and I have to rejoin them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start chatzilla, on the latest XPP with all the patches, connect to IRC Server
and join channels and wait, it happens on its own.

Actual Results:  
Shutting down: Caught signal 11, Segmentation fault

Expected Results:  
Not disconnected

Um... WTF? I don't even have a clue where that is coming from, but it sure as
hell isn't ChatZilla!

The message doesn't even appear to be in Mozilla.org code at all.

WTF yourself, this is what is shown in the Chatzilla window, so if is not
comming from your code, how the hell does it get into your window?

Well, first of all ChatZilla runs on Firefox. In your case, a slightly outdated
version of Firefox, I might add. So then there's Firefox's code (which, by the
way, would *still* not be our concern), but looking through the source points
out that Firefox doesn't know any error message of the kind you describe. So
then, Firefox runs on your OS. Now, if your OS corrupts things, or sends weird
notices to its apps, then it's not our fault, nor our code. The fact that
ChatZilla is nice enough to even tell you that something outside its control
made it break is better than what most apps will do.

Incidentally, I took it XPP would mean 'Windows XP Pro', but I'm not sure. Could
you clarify?

XPP = XP Pro,

Yes I noticed that there had been new version released. I have upgraded both FF
and chatzilla. So far not an issue, If I don't see is again by in the AM I will
close the bug.

If you want user to use your software, you need to drop the aditude. Part of
being successful is that users don't feel like they are bing bashed for sharing
issues with you.

Both lines are straight from your IRC server, hence this bug is INVALID.

As for the 'attitude', it's you we don't like. Apparently pointing out that the
messages in question must be coming from some external source upsets you...

No James Ross it is s@#t comments and feedback that users get from 'know it all'
developers that make some Open Source projects fail and or suffer.

Best of luck to ya.
