The Distro I am using is Linux Mint 10 (julia) Kernel Linux 2.6.35-22 generic GNOME 2.32.0 It is an Old computer Intel Celeron CPU 2.4 GHz Memory 748 MB I am using Firefox 11.0 Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint 1.0

Firefox was running fine and I had no problem until about 3 weeks ago. Now unfortunately each time I close Firefox I get a crash report. After the crash report is sent Firefox then closes.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

You can find the IDs of the submitted crash reports on the about:crashes page.

The problem did not occur in safe mode. I then one by one disabled all the plugins. Once all the plugins were disabled the problem was still there. Then one by one I proceeded to disable the extensions. When I was left with only 4 Enabled.

  • Adblock Plus 2.2.3
  • Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon 0.4
  • Element Hiding Helper for Adblock Plus 1.2.3
  • English (Australian) Dictionary 2.1.2

the problem was no longer there.
