Firefox shuts itself down.

Have just installed FF on a brand new Windows 7 computer. I leave a couple of Flash pages running overnight. In the past this has been OK. Now I find when I return to the computer that FF has just shut itself down to the task bar icon. Clicking this starts a new session of FF. Not sure how long it runs before shutting down.
