Firefox crashing all the time

more options

Firefox has been crashing on me all the time for nearly two weeks now. At best I might be able to get an hour's use out of it before it dies, at worst it crashes on start up time after time. It crashes in safe mode and it crashes with all plugins and add-ons disabled. I can't even access it to provide troubleshooting information. I'm using OSX 10.5.8 on a Macbook Pro, running Firefox 3.6.3, and I'm thoroughly sick of having to use Safari instead. I've tried everything on the 'Firefox crashes on start up' page, and looking up the crash reports only seems to turn up things about Quake and Evernote, neither of which I use. Does anyone have the same problem or know anything that makes any difference at all to it?

Mine crashes loads too since I updated to 3.6.3. It's the least stable Firefox version I've ever known.
