User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; es-ES; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.0.5 MEGAUPLOAD 1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; es-ES; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.0.5

Suddenly, the main window disappeared, and Mac OSX said the app didn't respond, so I did CMD + Q, and then i got "Firefox crashed" (the usual Mac OSX window) then i could load firefox as usual.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Actual Results:  
Firefox crashed

Expected Results:  
It should act as usual

Because the Firefox Crash Reporter window didn't appear, i dont have any crash ID
This problem also happened to me a few times in the 3.0 branch
so. the dialog you got let you force quit. it wasn't showing you a crash, it was showing you a hang.

from your log:
Event:          hang

your stack was somewhere under js, beyond that i can't see anything interesting.

So... isn't this a bug?

perhaps, but much information is needed before it can be confirmed as a bug.

please read the page linked in comment #1
If you want to get a stack trace for a hang, you need to download a dmg with -shark- in its name. Then you can use activity monitor/sampler.app to get a stack trace.

since you don't have a stack usable trace, this bug is incomplete.
