please run firefox in -safe-mode for a while and see if the problem
still happens.

To do so start firefox from terminal like:

 firefox -safe-mode

no reply. If you can provide the info I asked for, feel free to reopen this bug.

Could not reproduce bug when using -safe-mode.

Perhaps I should just upgrade to 7.10, and see if the problem goes away. Not much point tracking this down if this is a 7.04 specific bug, I'd imagine.

This bug does not occur in 7.10, so I'm relabelling this "Fix Released".

I hit the same bug in Fedora Core Firefox 2.0.0.5, so this isn't Ubuntu specific. The only extension in common was del.icio.us, so that may be to blame.

if it worked fine in safe mode it is caused by an extension most of the
time, when you upgraded you most likely upgraded any extensions you had
installed as well.
