Steps to reproduce:

turned off the modem, router, and un plugged the computer.  I waited 30 minuets and then powered every thing back up.  Logged in a new session and the network setting had been tampered with and had to create a new wired setting or I wouldn't have been able to send this report.


Actual results:

Now it has more crash error's with numerous bug reports with firefox 3.5.4, gui, kernel, xmul, and many more programs and with a core dump.


Expected results:

I don't see anything in this report that would leave me to believe that this is a Firefox issue.

Firefox 3.5 hasn't been supported by mozilla since shortly after Firefox 3.6 was released in January 2010. Fedora 12 hasn't been supported by Fedora since December 2010.

It sounds more like hardware failures than anything else though running such an out of date browser and operating system could have lead to a system compromise.

If you can detail the reasons you think this is related to an existing bug in Firefox 10 or later and can give us steps to reproduce or at least diagnose the issue, please reopen the bug. Otherwise this bug is invalid. Sorry.
