-------
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
I'm running FireFox 3.5.4 on Ubuntu 9.10. It is a fresh install on a new machine.
FireFox crashes routinely. It is not predictable in terms of time or number of pages. But it is guaranteed to crash if given enough time and activity.
I've had this problem almost continually with FireFox since at least version 3.0 on all my Ubuntu machines. I've reported bugs before, but was always told to create a clean, extension free profile. Which was a hassle, so I didn't bother.
Until now. Since I just installed Ubuntu and FireFox on a brand new machine, and discovered immediately that the crash problem was still here, I figured this was the time to make a definitive report.
I made a totally extension free profile and then just went around to random web sites. It crashed within a minute.
Because I ran it from the command line, I have all the command line output, which I'll share with you. It's attached in a text file to this bug report.

Please add computer information such as architecture (32 bit, 64 bit?) and memory (Firefox requiring alot of memory).
