FF$ freezes

I am using an iMac running OS10.6.7, and a MacBook Air running the same.

FF4 is much faster than FF3, but I have found that when I have over 10 tabs open, and if I leave the program running for a while, FF freezes. The only way I can get out of that is by force quitting.

I have 8G RAM and only 5G has been used. So I don't think it is a memory leak problem.

I have now gone back to FF 3.6.16.

Any idea welcome.

Just tried FF4.01. Same problem.

What's wrong?
