Many times repeated over and over again.
When it crashes at times it will lockup the whole desktop, however ctl-alt-f2 then pkill firefox releases desktop. The other thing I noticed google search box and address box when entering data moves down to where 20% of font is below box area.
I upgraded recommended updates but did not notice until I changed the system application font recently.
ii firefox-3.0 3.0.3+build1+
Hi,
firefox extensions are the cause for the majority of bugs reported against firefox.
To check that the bug you are seeing is actually a firefox one (and not an extension one), please disable your extensions one-by-one (restart firefox in between) until there is either no enabled extension left or your problem is resolved.
Please report your findings back.
Thanks,
- Alexander
