Firefox ALWAYS crashes when you do too many downloads using Flashgot.  However,
this build is new, in that if you do not use it for a while, and I've noticed
especially if the screen saver comes up, it becomes totally non responsive, and
has to be force-quit and re-started.  This happens 100% of the time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Firefox
2.Go away, allow screen saver to come up
3.Try to use firefox.  It won't work

Actual Results:  
Froze

Expected Results:  
Worked normally

Seems to be a problem with all themes.
