filing from the topcrash statistics :

http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?product=Firefox&version=Firefox%3A3.5.3&query_search=signature&query_type=exact&query=&date=&range_value=1&range_unit=weeks&do_query=1&signature=nsXULDocument%3A%3AResumeWalk%28%29

comments mention"This has been happening for over a month now. The first time I try to start Firefox, it crashes and then restarts without a problem." but no clear steps to reproduce, maybe worth to check the urls ?

Assigning to Mats for want of a better owner. Thanks Mats :-)

Given the correlation with Adblock Plus and .NET Framework Assistant
I found this blog post:
http://adblockplus.org/blog/the-return-of-net-framework-assistant
that says:
"Firefox tries to apply an overlay and fails because the file doesn’t exist."

So I suspect this bug is the same underlying problem as bug 497875.

497875 has landed on trunk, so I'm going to tentatively mark this FIXED on trunk. If it's not, then we can reopen or file a new bug.

Tentatively marking 1.9.2-final-fixed since 497875 landed there.
