Thank you for the bug report.

Could you please install the firefox-dbg package and obtain another
crash report by following the instructions on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingFirefox This will greatly aid us in
tracking down your problem.

The areas in your crash report that state "(no debugging symbols
found)" are usually where the info that is needed to make a useful crash
report is stored. If you could do this and resubmit it will help us look
into your bug

Also do you know what plugin was required? Flash/Java?

David

Thank you for your response to my bug report

I d/l and installed the firefox-dbg package as requested but
was unable to locate the information that you require to
look into my bug, i looked in the right place (i think) but
its not there

The plugin was Java, here is a link to the page in question

http://www.advfn.com/p.php?
pid=trades&epic=VML&cb=1170062322&java_vm=sun&java_vm_ver=1.5
.0_06&fp=7.0.19

To enter this page you need to register with advfn for free,
the java applet provides "Level 1" financial information on
trade volumes & buy/sell info.

I cannot access this information using Firefox, because
there is no suitable java plugin to d/l

I have tried to reproduce the bug and cause a FF crash
several times without success but if it happens again I will
send you a full bug report. Now that i have installed the
firefox-dbg package, hopefully with the information that you
need

Regards

David Smith
