Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

I have 20091215 1.9.2 nightly build on my n900.  In general this works good, but tonight I was trying to upload some photos to facebook from my device.  In the process, Fennec has crashed twice.  Here is basically what I did:

1) log into facebook
2) click on my profile
3) click on photos
4) click on an album
5) add more photos to album
6) select the basic html photo uploader
7) pick a photo from my device
8) upload
9) tag photo, add a caption
10) add a comment

The crash happens somewhere around steps 9/10.  The second crash happened while the page wasn't loading or anything fancy.

after updating to 20091216 build (rc1?), I still had this problem.  mfinkle recommended turning off plugins and the problem resolved itself.  

In addition, I was getting crashes on money.cnn.com (which has flash on by default) as well as just trying to comment on a photo on facebook.

Joel, I don't see this with the 1/20/10 nightly. Can you confirm and close the bug please?

odd, I cannot verify this as the file picker isn't working for me!

ok, after unplugging my n900 from the charger (USB cable to computer), I can find photos to upload.  I cannot get this to crash anymore with 2010/01/21 nightly
