Firefox File Download Dialog Causing Crash

[Chris I-B]

Binary package hint: firefox

I am running Ubuntu Gutsy 64, but have use firefox32 as my default browser (because of Flash). Whenever I try to download .doc, .xls, .pdf. and a few other filetypes firefox hangs when displaying the Save File dialog window. I just launched firefox32 from a terminal and here is the output:

ve4cib@Ubik:~$ firefox32

I checked the other firefox crash reports and didn't see anything sufficiently similar to this one for my liking, hence the new report. If there's an easy workaround/fix I'd love to hear about it! Thanks for the help. If you need more information please let me know at <email address hidden>

Thanks for your contribution,
