Thank you for your crash report. I'm taking it to retrace.

Gary Leeming, can you answer these questions:
Can you reproduce the bug? If so, which are the steps that leads to the crash?
Which flash package do you have installed?
Which Java package do you have installed?
Which firefox extensions do you have installed?

Thanks

I cannot reproduce the bug. It seems fairly random. There does not seem to be any pattern to when it happens. It also only happens about once, maybe twice a week so it's hard to match up everything. I can visit the same website after the crash, without rebooting, perform the same steps and the dialogue box will appear without any problem.
I am using the standard Ubuntu java package from the repository.
I am using Flash - flashplugin-nonfree 7.0.68
I have Delicious 1.2, AdBlock, Tiny Menu, Google Notebook and Greasemonkey installed. I only have one Greasemonkey script; to view Google Reader feeds in Gmail.
If anything else comes up I'll let you know.

Thanks Gary Leeming for your feedback. From your description this could be another duplicate of Bug #7457 , I'm going to pick it again to see if I can do a better retrace.
