My Aurora won't stay loaded today. It stays open for a few seconds, enough to start to read the page, which is an error page in response to the previous crash(es) of today, but then within about 10 seconds or less that crashes, too. I was able to open it in Safe Mode by holding down Option as I opened it, and it stays open that way. Any suggestions, or should I fall back to the latest beta? Or go forward to the newest version 8.0a1, although I can't find a download for that yet. I went to about:crashes but could not find any Crash IDs for my system for today, although Preferences > System Defaults is set to Submit Crash Reports.

Here is the most relevant part of the Mac crash report l---

Ghostery was the culprit. Guess we can't really say they're at fault, though, since this is not a full release, not even a beta.

I found it by the process of disabling my add-ons and plug-ins. First I disabled them one-by-one. Still crashed. Then I told Safe Mode to 'permanently' disable them. It stayed up. Then I began enabling them one-by-one. It stayed up, UNTIL I enabled the Ghostery extension, then it crashed again.

Contact the developer of Ghostery and let him know about that problem.

8.0a1 is not the newest version as 6.b1, 7.0a2 and 8.0a1 are all Test builds in various stages of development from somewhat stable to bleeding edge. The newest version is still Firefox 5.0 (5.0.1 was just for Mac)
