Hi there
Thank you for the bug report. Could you please try to obtain a backtrace by following the instructions on [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs, or double click over the crash report from /var/crash/ in case you have a firefox related crash file.

Also, please answer these questions:
Is this crash reproducible? If so, which are the steps that lead to it?
Which flash package do you have installed?

This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem.

This can be reproduced - but not reliably.
It happens when I switch from a page having a flash movie to another page.
I have this kind of crashes since Firefox 0.8 or so. There has been some 1.x versions where it was working fine - but the bug got reintroduced.
I have the flash version 9.0.115.0 installed.

My firefox crashes on about the second or third flash video watched. At the moment it crashes reliably when the video on this page (http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/13/iphone-20-sneak-peek/) is started.

Confirmed my friend. Mine crashes too on the web site mentioned in previous post (http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/13/iphone-20-sneak-peek/)

Firefox 3.0b5
with adblock plus 0.7.5.4
adobe flash 9.0.124.0
sun java6 version 6 update 5 (build 1.6.0_05-b13)
so this problem seems to have been carried on to newer versions.
