Hi,
My firefox (3.0.4, out of the official repos) on intrepid (fresh install, not upgrade) crashes occasionally, and completely silently. it just /disappears/, without any messages.

I do not use samba, i have no "wins" anywhere in my /etc/nsswitch.conf

maybe that means this is a different bug... but i am not sure.

it doesn't even happen necessarily when i'm browsing. i can walk away from the comp, come back, and firefox is gone. i have noscript and adblock installed, so pages don't tend to "do" anything when i'm not there, so i'd think it shouldn't be crashing when i'm not actively browsing, at least.

just today, it crashed while i was entering a url into the urlbar, e.g. no pages were being loaded at the time.

i'd be glad to carry out any diagnostics, just tell me which ones, and how to do them. :)

since the symptoms are the same, i added this comment to the bug, hope that's ok.
