[Bug 252434] Re: Firefox closes unexpectedly

[Dustydahn]

Thanks for the response.

I "cured" my problem by lowering the system RAM from 1GB to 512MB.  
Yeah, I know that sounds stupid but I believe I have a hardware 
problem.  I discovered what I believe is a memory controller issue while 
doing a warm (thermally) cold start.  System has been error free since 
the RAM reduction, albeit a bit slower!  Seems that there is a timing 
issue in Firefox that causes things like this.  On a different issue, I 
have an Apple Imac that Firefox crashes on when trying to print with a 
Canon IP2600.  Everything is OK when using the old workhorse MP130.  Go 
figure.

Thanks again.
