Constantly crashing after a few minutes for a couple weeks now, crashes in safe mode too. Uninstalled and installed Firefox. Removed plugins, updated plugins. Don't want to go back to Netscape Navigator.

hello NoSlak, some other users who have recently updated the graphics driver for their ati hardware (to ati catalyst version 12.8) have reported similar crashes. please try disabling hardware acceleration in firefox > options > advanced > general & see if this resolves the issue of frequent crashes for the moment until ati releases a new driver.

Thank you. Yes, it started after I installed the last ATI driver.
