So my Firefox updated to 3.5.3(?) and it BLOWS. The damn thin crashes all of the time. I noticed that it mostly crashes because of Yahoo (Classic Mail, Fantasy Sports). What's the deal? When did Firefox suddenly get crappy?

Happens on 2 different computers BTW...

Guess I'm not the only one. Started seeing crashes while down at expo.

Was periodic enough that I just ignored it for now as it is my barely used for anything real netbook.

I was going to say that it could be Yahoo's problem as their software sucketh greatly....

Of course I'm on .4 as well and haven't had any problems.

My Yahoo did this, but as soon as I got .4 problem was gone.

I never had a problem with Firefox...an old version of Flash was pretty crash-happy but I hope you keep your Flash updated...

Hopefully I do not curse myself but I have 3.5.3 and running with no issues.
I too use Yahoo Classic Mail.

I haven't had a problem with 3.5.3, but then I don't use Yahoo in the slightest anymore.

3.5.4 did not fix my issues. Nor did a fresh Flash install.

I'm using Google Chrome atm :p
