I've been using firefox for a long time and since the day i installed the very famous firefox 3 version, it was always crashing on my pc. I have installed windows several times now and still i get the same thing. just a few mins before, firefox chashed while i was making a youtube playlist and i lost all of my saved videos in quick list, it really took me more than an hour to find them!!!!!! wtf!!!!

havent anyone experienced something like this with the FF?? is it just to me everything is happening??!!!!!????

Only once or twice FF crashed on me when I was using youtube.
It happens only because of the youtube plugins.

[I'm using Vista as the OS]

I'd recommend Google Chrome.

Chrome doesn't crash the whole browser. It will simply crash only the 'tab' which you're having a problem.

Don't forget Google owns YouTube. Google owns Chrome.
Ringing any bells? ;)

    it rings a bunch of bells! yeh thats a good idea. but its hard to get used to the chrome. and i really need foxmarks and adblockplus plugins as well!!! i always press CRT+A and then CRT+C when im writing posts in EK cos when the FF craed, i could simply paste what i have written before in EK, so i will lose less.

    but its a real pain

    I have posted about this problem in the FF forum and they says that there is a prob with firefox profile folder and they adviced me to try to delete it and try again. it worked for a while and again the same thing happens.

    and they also told that there is a possibility to crash ff when a text is being inserted to a field..

    Firefox frequently quits without warning on Ubuntu 8.04.
    It seems that firefox crashes due to libflashplayer.so
    gdb output:
    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
    [Switching to Thread 0xb7cc76c0 (LWP 13270)]
    0xaefb2350 in ?? () from /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so

    this is from launch pad,

    i also noticed that the FF is crashing when the flashplayer is being used
