Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Release: Ubuntu 7.10 gutsy

Firefox version: 2.0.0.11+2nobinonly-0ubuntu0.7.10

This is one example, but sometimes when I click on a link that does a popup, or when using a tool that creates a popup, like DownThemAll for instance, or the del.icio.us tag bar, Firefox crashes. It doesn't always happen - sometimes I can go for days and be able to get popups. When it starts to crash though, if I restart Firefox right away it will crash right away on a popup link. I haven't figured out what makes it start working again.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report didn't yield the required information. Please go ahead and submit a new crash report if it crashed again with the latest available package. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

After investigating further and checking on the net the bug of my crash report is linked to a problem with kfmclent :
$ kfmclient openProfile webbrowsing
as set in menu does not work but
$ konqueror
does.

kfmclient is apparently a "classico"
