Firefox was crashing when I opened it, because I had toolbars enabled.

I was opening Firefox, and it crashed, so I started it in Safe mode and disabled all the add-ons, and then enabled them one-by-one and restarted Firefox. It only crashed when I enabled the Swagbucks and Zynga toolbars - one at a time, not both at the same time - and restarted the program. The Swagbucks toolbar is still working fine in Safari, and is not causing it to crash, and it was working fine last night when I put my computer to sleep.

i had sort-of opposite problem--swagbucks crashed my safari once[got rid of it], while on Firefox, it seemed ok....then my mac crashed horribly--lost everything!. how can i find out what crashed my mac? i had just started using a bunch of safari extensions. it seems each different combo of add-ons can be incompatible? ffox add-ons seem safer?
