It doesn't do this every time and I haven't noticed a pattern but if I just try to start it again it usually works after about the third try. I wish I had more details. Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce Actual Results: I don't know how to reproduce it.

Works for me on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:6.0a1) Gecko/20110522 Firefox/6.0a1 Also, could you see if the issue occurs if using Firefox in safe mode: http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode How about with a new, empty testing profile? (Don't install any addons into it) http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
Reporter, do you have anything new to add about this issue?
Not really. Is there a log file somewhere that I might be able to check when this happens that could be illuminating?
I don't know if there is a log file for this particular issue. Can you try a clean install of Fx from: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/
