User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9 I do not know what exactly triggers the browser crash (hang). But it looks like it is connected to mouseclicks either near or in the addressbar. Pretty annoying How do I get my 2.0.0.8 install back again. Another annoying thing is this: When Firefox releases a new version of Firefox I'm notified that a new version is released and if I want to upgrade. If I say no, then I get message that new version of Firefox will be installed on next startup. How do I disable that. I want to be in control when new software is installed on my computer... Anyway, Firefox really kick the superugly IE7 (and IE6) on the scrapyard :-) Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Have not managed to figure out what exaxtly that trigger this error. It is not happening when browser loads a page or something. It looks like it happens when I click either inside the address area or nearby. Actual Results: Browser crash (hangs).
Please see the support articles at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes Use the links from it to obtain a talkback ID and post it in a comment here. One common crash is caused by the "Firebug" extension, disabling/uninstalling from Tools -> Add-ons if you have it will stop the crashes. You can change the update behaviour in Tools -> Options, "Advanced" section, "Updates" tab. Change "When updates to Firefox are found" to "Ask me what I want to do"
Tore: Did you already crash again? Did you get a Talkback ID (see Comment 1)? Does this still occour with Firefox 2.0.0.11?
