After downloading and installing the Google Toolbar, Firefox crashes everytime I try to launch.  A window 
box appears with a disclaimer and  thanking you for installing the toolbar.  There are options to select for 
enabling pange rank display and if you want Google to be your default search engine.  It asks you to select 
"Finish" after you make your choices.  The "Finish" button is not active and as soon as you click anywhere 
in the box, Firefox crashes.  (You get a spinning colored circle and have to do a forced quit.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. It might be spewcific to my Mac G4 laptop
2.Download & install Goole toolbar
3.Launch Firefox

Actual Results:  
You get a spinning colored circle and have to do a forced quit.

Expected Results:  
Launch Firefox

Shouldn't this be taken up with Google?  Extensions are a pain for crashes, but
that's not the fault of FF.

Could not reproduce this on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070206 Firefox/3.0.1

Can anyone verify that this is specific to G4 systems?
