Hello,
I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.14.
I have installed some addons and a notificaion is displayed as any update for them is available.

It happens, sometimes, that an addon us buggy, or for some reason I don't want to update it, so I click on Skip button in the update window.
After that, the browser restarts and crashes: the only way to have it working agin is accepting the updates... even if i don't want them.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install some addons (i.e. Distrus, Colorful Tabs), older version
2.Wait Firefox to propose upgrading with newer version
3.Click "Skip" button
Actual Results:  
After that, the browser crashes.
If restarted, the addon update window appears again; everytyme the updating is skipped, the browser crashes.
If addons are installed, it starts normally

Expected Results:  
Start normally even if no updating has been made

Unfortunately I'm using the portable version running from my pendrive... Quality feedback isn't present. :-(

The only thing I can actually report is the contents of the bug report my system tries sendinng to Microsoft:

AppName: firefox.exe	 AppVer: 1.8.20080.40413	 ModName: xpcom_core.dll
ModVer: 1.8.20080.40413	 Offset: 00001797


In addition, a text file is created in my user's LOCALS folder: 7f59_appcompat.txt ('Ive attached it).
Hope it's useful...

Regards,
MAx

That is unfortunately not helpful I think. Do you see the same issue with the official Firefox?

No response and we need more information to go on to investigate this, closing for now.
