It's crashed 6 times in the past few days. It's happened on different websites and I can't figure out what is causing it. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it

There is a problem on Windows 8 with Firefox 19 and AMD Radeon HD 6XXX/7XXX graphic display cards and you seem to be experiencing the Windows 7 variant of this issue.

  • bug 806071 - crash in js::analyze::ScriptAnalysis::analyzeLifetimes mainly with AMD Radeon HD 6250/6290/6310/6320/6400M (Wrestler/Vancouver Asics)

This issue is currently being investigated in bug 830531 for Window 8.

  • Bug 830531 - [Win8] crash in XPC_WN_Helper_NewResolve mainly with AMD Radeon HD 6290/6310/6320/7290/7310/7340

If you have one of those display cards then best is to stay with or downgrade to Firefox 18.0.2 for now.

Thanks for the quick response cor-el, I'll downgrade and see if that helps
