Description

[Jeff Whittington]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; es-ES; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041210 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; es-ES; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041210 Firefox/1.0

I was trying to log onto www.stumbleupon.com, which told me I needed the latest
version (1.0.6) which I downloaded. The programme loads OK but when I try to
access any webpage from my home page the programme crashes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Loads OK to home page
2.Attempt to access any webpage
3.Firefox crashes




I have reinstalled an older version of Firefox.
This is a very complicated way of reporting faults, next time I won't bother,
I'll just give up on Mozill (which up to now I have found very useful) and use
another programme!

What "older" version of Firefox are you using? Did you install Firefox 1.0.6
into a new directory with a new profile?

It's likely that an old version of an extension or theme broke your new Firefox
install - in which case a "clean" install of Firefox 1.0.6 should be OK.

do you have roboform installed?

please run the firefox1.0.6 installer again and select custom, add talkback to
the list of things to install. once you've installed, run and crash firefox
again. afterwards, please run components\talkback and copy your incident id to
this report.
