Bug was fixed by automatic update of browser plugin, version 9.0.0.332 may still experience issues.

we'd still like a crash report...

could you at least indicate which version of the plugin you have now?

Further research found this bug was due to the incompatibility with the YoYo Games plug-in found at http://www.yoyogames.com/plugins/ffplugin/YoYo.xpi, Adobe Acrobat reader 9.0.0.332 and Firefox 3.1b3. This crash cannot be reproduced as the YoYo games plug-in no longer install under Firefox 3.1b3 due to the "identified" incompatibility.

The bug was first produced when installing the plug-in using Firefox 3.0.8, after which version 3.1b3 was installed and received the plug-in bypassing the primary installation stage. Performing this along with the installation of Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in version 9.0.0.332 may reproduce the bug.

I will try to get a stack trace if possible for future reference ASAP.
