Arnaud,

Thanks for the suggestion. I have never used Firefox in the safe mode but will read how to do it. I'm assuming by your suggestion that safe mode gives me an extension "free" version to run to see how it all works.

Then I assume I should respond directly back to you, which is what I will do.

Give me about a day and I'll get a report to you.

Many thanks for the response.

Please, try to run firefox using a clean profile in order to see if the
problem comes from one of your extension: firefox -safe-mode

It your problem still occurs, try to obtain a backtrace by following the
instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs and
http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces/Details.

Set to incomplete until we have more a backtrace or more info.
Let us know if you have problems to get a backtrace.

Status in “firefox-3.0” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Was using FF when it crashed and I was using Blogtalk radio's interface
when everything shut down, and then the FF would pause trying to open, then it
just stopped and would not open... I've been having to click twice on FF to
get it open even before I just recently (1day ago) added the BlogTalkRadio
toolbar addon.

Seems like Blogtalk toolbar might have had something to do with it crashing. It
has been removed.

However, since removing it FF was still having problems. It was stalling, then
it would just stop. Then repeat. However, before today I could repeat by
clicking the icon a second time and it would usually start up.

I am now hardwired to the net in order to get things to work. Seems like it
also had something to do with being wireless. Which has been kind of a touchy
issue too. But stabilized with the use of a netgear card I had. Yet lately the
wireless would work without it since upgrading to hardy heron... at least most
of the time. But without the card all I see in the panel is an icon showing two
computer screens which I thought should show the wireless networks available but
never does until I insert the card.

Sorry about all the confusing descriptions. But I figure hey I'm a 60 year
old none geek, I should get a little slack.

Here is info from FF about.
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092510
Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.3

Hardware
Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop

I have several addons.

All-in-One Sidebar (think I used this with FF2)
Bookmars Previews
Cooliris Previews (used with FF2)
Dictionary Tooltip
Download Statusbar (disabled)
Download Helper
FireFTP
FoxClocks (used with FF2)
Foxytunes (used with FF2)
mediaplayerconnectivity (which I'm not sure I am using correctly so it
might be set wrong)
MetroPipe Privacy Bar (used with FF2 never had any problem)
mid
Morning Coffee
Noscript (used with FF2)
ScrapBook
Tab Kit
Toolbar Buttons
Ubuntu Firefox Modifications
United States English Dictionary
Wired-Marker (don't use much)
Zotero (installed for a while but not used yet)

Now How do I followup on finding/getting the fix? Is it emailed?

In the meantime point me in the right direction.
