Hello,

There is one strange bug. I think that it's because of Firebug. But Firebug is only add-on for Firefox, so this problem could be in the kernel or add-ons engine. 
The first issue is segmentation fault when I close the browser. Sometimes it crashes when I'm trying to do something with Firebug.

I have these issues after the version when you fixed several memory leaks issues. I read about this in the news-letter. I think that this issue is because of that memory leaks optimization, because error is segmentation fault.

Regards,
Ilya

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Close the browser

or 

2. Try to use Firebug (but it happens not always)

Hi. Any chance you could try to explain in more detail what you are doing when Firefox crashes? Do you have Talkback (quality feedback agent) installed? Instructions about checking for and installing Talkback are available on http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Quality+Feedback+Agent . Please try to use Talkback to get us a stack for the crash. Thanks!

This started happening to me this morning. I realize people submitting bugs always say out of the blue, but I use Firefox a lot, and this issue started this morning. I did perform Ubuntu 10.04 updates yesterday. I do not remember what was updated offhand.

Once I disabled Firebug, the problem went away.
