Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, and Firefox 3. I got updated automatically from Firefox 3 Beta 5. It's happened - I think - five times already with the first incident about a week ago. At first I thought it was just some fluke, but perhaps not since so many others are experiencing this.
