Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
This has happened very frequently, I will be browsing a website and while a page is loading the firefox process will just close for no apparent reason, sometimes this will happen many times on some myspace profile pages.
I have a slight feeling that this may be caused by Java or Flash since it happens (according to my observation) only on pages that contain these technologies.
