FireFox 2 keeps crashing

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2

This one keeps crashing out on Brisky (and also some other sites).

It seems related to some javascript driven advertisements, although I can't prove it.

I'm still using the older version on my laptop and that doesnt appear to have this problem.

Anything I could check/does anyone else have a similar problem?

OS is Windows XP Pro SP2 updated with the usual security updates etc.

I'm not seeing that problem, but then again, I'm using AdBlock on the ads

Re: FireFox 2 keeps crashing

Hmm - I might have to start doing that as it is quite irritating

Re: FireFox 2 keeps crashing

It's odd - it's only since I started using FF2 that this has started - weird..

Latest FFX here too, and no crashes. The jury's still out on my reported memory leak issue though.
