Also, the “Personas” plugin was stuck in the “on” position.įortunately Firefox solved the problem: two days after fighting with crashes, I got an alert saying it disabled Yahoo’s YSlow performance evaluation plugin for stability reasons. That helped - Google’s toolbar plugin was one of the culprits that was causing my crash - but I still had issues with Firefox crashing every time I tried to use the search box. It also allowed me to disable all plugins for regular mode, so I could launch normally and then activate individual plugins to find the problem.


This allowed me to launch Firefox without any preferences/plugins/etc. My immediate fix was to launch Firefox in safe mode by holding down the key while clicking on the application icon ( read the Firefox Safemode documentation). I’ve been having massive stability issues with Firefox 3.5/3.6 for the Mac for the last week or so, as Firefox got stuck in this crash-reboot-crash loop that I couldn’t break.
