Crash Data

On my system, firefox is crashing regularly, sometimes several times a day, when I click a text field, or when I change the spell-check language. This is not systematic though.

I am using 2 different languages in FF text fields, and I switch between them several times a day (maybe 20 times?). About 10% of the time FF will crash. This is highly unreliable. As a consequence I have to systematically copy/paste the content of the text field before I switch spell-check language (as the crash lose the last edit). This is truly frustrating.

Sometimes I just click a textarea and start to write, and FF crashes.

Today I had 4 crashes:
