User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060719 Firefox/1.5.0.5

Since the last version (1.5.0.5) i have a continuos hard-disk access to the profile directory caused by firefox.exe. (The HDD-led is flashing all the time)

Closing firefox does not help, because the process firefox.exe remains still in the taskmanager. Killing this process solves the problem.


Reproducible: Always

Does this happen in firefox's safemode?

Ok I'm Sorry. Using the safemode I discovered that the problem is caused by the google toolbar. Without this extension everything ist fine.
Might be an incompatibility of the toolbar with firefox version 1.5.0.5
