Firefox 1.0.5 Crashed first time!

[Vishal Gupta]

Guys!
Today I opened 10 pages approx. in one firefox windows (in tabs).
And after a few minutes the firefox automatically closed.
Very strange!
Many times I hv opened 20-25 pages in one single windows, but firefox never crashed!
It happened to me first time!
Did ne1 face similar problem ever?
Can ne1 tel me the reason?

[navjotjsingh]

Can't tell the reason but nowdays my 1.0.6 crashes often giving memory block error messages. Upgrade yours to 1.0.6 Maybe that can help.

[Vishal Gupta]

I used 1.0.6 many days and found 1.0.5 better than this.
Thats why now I'm using 1.0.5
I think we hv to wait till the Final version of 1.5

Well it must be due to some outta memory error, were u runnin any heavy background application ?

[Vishal Gupta]

Nah!
Only firefox was running...
And AVG Anti virus was running in background.
Thats all.
It happened first time for me!

[QwertyManiac]

Hmm strange case then,
did this happen only once ?
or every time ?

Well , i guess tis a bug then... dunno... STRANGE !

[QwertyManiac]

No Indyan its not like that,
FF never crashes like IE does, atleast not for me and my known friends,
Well notepad might crash if u open a too big file but if u wait a little longer it will open, etter use wordpad for large files. (i.e. >16mb)

@VG - Do u use a lot of extensions coz i think that mght have used up all the memory and caused this ...

[Vishal Gupta]

U can look in Favorite Firefox Extensions thread.
I use only 4 extensions:

Bug Me Not
Extended Statusbar
Reload Every
jsLibLite

And I always use these extensions, not like i recently installed them.
Don't know why it crashed?

Well, it happened many times on my comp when I was using 1.03. It was mainly when system resources were more and the comp. hanged up for a while. Now, I use Deer Park (1.0+) and well, though system resources are sometimes more and a larfe no. of pages are open, it does not crash...
Upgrade it and make the system a li'l light..
BTW, I agree with @Indyan. Well, of course, any software on Windows will crash sometime.. I have not crashed Notepad, though!! LOL!

Hi Vishal ,

Well there is no need to be strange when FF crashed

It might be due to many reasons such as

memory overload , a bug , may be a virus too

Also does this happens always ?

If not then no problem . afterall windows is built to crash :lol: and every program of windows either have crashed or may crash :lol:

So dont be worry

If this happens regularly then ther might be problem with the FF and it extenisons

reinsatlling it may fix it

Thanks ,

I'm not facing the problem regularly.
It happened only once.

Install session saver extension also. SessionSaver restores your browser -exactly- as you left it, every startup, every time. Not even a crash will phase it.
