Hi.
Thanks for your bug report.
This is a known problem, caused by memory corruption bugs.
It has been fixed in the upstream sources, but Mozilla has not
yet incorporated all of the patches into a Firefox release. I am
somewhat hopeful this will be in their next release (1.5.0.10),
but cannot say when that will happen; when they do release
a version with the needed patches, we intend to deploy it as
soon as it's feasible.
Bob
