Crash Data

My brother encountered this.
He wanted to try out the new Firefox 3, then he noticed some change in Firefox 3 that he didn't like, so wanted to revert back to Firefox 2.

Steps to reproduce:
- Install Firefox 3 using the default settings
- Install Firefox 2 using the default settings
- Start-up Firefox 2

Result:
Crash
