clicking on any menu item or right clicking crashes Firefox
It's been running fine until today. I don't recall that anything has changed on my system prior to this happening.
Crashes occur :- 1. with Firefox 20 and Firefox 30 (run from the terminal). I haven't tried any other versions 2. regardless of running in safe mode 3. regardless of running on a cleared profile
OS is Ubuntu 10.04
Difficult to provide Troubleshooting Information below as I am browsing here with Opera. I'll try and add this detail once I've completed the registration process. In the meantime, I have used strace to track the processes leading up to the crash and subsequent manual killing of the greyed out window.
- ~$ strace firefox 2> /tmp/strace.txt
The final lines of strace.txt follow:- (sorry for the volume)

Can you give us the list of other crashes you had?
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box.
Thank you for your help!
More information and further troubleshooting steps can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly) article.
If you can't keep Firefox open to get the reports, you will have to do this the hard way. Open the file browser on your computer. Depending on your system, you need to find this folder; C:\Users\=<User Name>=\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox Once you are there, look for a folder called Crash Reports. Inside are two folders; submitted and pending. Go into each. Copy the last 5 File Names in each folder. Remember, the last 5. Check the date/time. Post all the information in the reply box below. Forgot to add, with each file name, include the date and time created.
