Is this still an issue for you? We are trying to sort this issue and would like to know if this still happens.

If it can be reproduced, please describe the steps to do it.

Thanks in advance.

This bug is still an issue on Ubuntu 8.10. I can't describe how to reproduce it because it seems to happen intermittently. Sometimes firefox will work for days on end and sometimes it will crash every time I try to visit a website (eg, Gmail), which is what it is doing today. (I'm writing this using Opera.)

I'm running Firefox 3.0.11 on Ubuntu 8.10, and when I run it in gdb, I get a similar stack trace to the one posted above. Let me know if you need more information.

@ Ian Phillips

Is this still occurring with the latest Firefox 3.0?
