been there, done that. i'm using the latest 64-bit version and, at
the moment, firefox seems to be behaving.
on the other hand, there is one other annoyance with firefox -- it's
tendency to absolutely suck up CPU cycles. occasionally, depending on
what pages i'm viewing, Xorg will be using close to 100% CPU, and
firefox will be using 100% as well. literally, earlier this morning,
using "top", both firefox and Xorg were listed as using 100% CPU. at
which point, response from any instance of firefox is cripplingly
slow. also potentially a flash issue?
