I have recently upgraded to lion (about a week ago). Since then firefox 3.6.19 has crashed maybe 1-4 times. Today I decided to test firefox 5 but only after 1 minute and no tabs opened firefox 5 crashed. Firefox 3.6 crashed about 2 times today. How can I fix this???

Along with the crashing I also get the mac spinning pinwheel that means it is unresponsive. This happens constantly...
