Curious what version that is? I haven't seen that yet, and FF crashes frequently for me. I've started using Chrome a lot more because of it.

Have you guys noticed whether or not there are Flash banners/etc on a page when Firefox crashes ?

Flash is the only thing I've had crash Firefox for awhile. Though, I don't exactly use Firefox regularly.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

Flash sites or several sites loading at any one time are the things I have noticed crashing firefox.

Also noticed that when watching videos on YouTube and I decide to close the tab during the video being played that the sound still streams despite having navagated away from the site.

I'm pretty certain it's been sites with flash crashing mine too. The other irritating thing is that after I've had it up for about 24 hours it really starts hogging CPU.

After 48hrs+, I start hearing voices, my vision swims, and I become convinced someone is trying to kidnap me :lol:
