Bug Description
A few days ago there was an update for firefox. Since installing this update the
Firefox has all kinds of problems.
The most problems crashes the browser. The problems are on both computers i run
on (K)ubuntu. An Athlon 1700, and
an intel 333 deshute computer.
I cannot use the history and extensions-windows in the firefox menu, the browser
crashes when i try to open the
windows.
Ctrl-T and Ctrl-H crashes the browser
When i start firefox from the console with firefox --debug, the browser works ok.
Extensions giving problems: Customize Google, Conquery, tab preferences.

I have had similar problems. Ctrl-H doesn't work, the extension window
occasionally does, mostly crashes the browser. Could the bug be related to the
regression introduced in Firefox 1.0.5?
ReleaseNotes for 1.0.6 say :
* Restore API compatibility for extensions and web applications that did not
work in Firefox 1.0.5.

I removed $HOME/.mozilla in case a broken extension was the cause, but this only
partially fixes things. As soon as you open the extensions dialogue, without
installing anything, there are problems again and the history fails.
