Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Not sure what caused it because I wasn't watching at the time but Firefox had twitter.com open in a single tab, and I was running Update Manager and applying today's updates.

Intrepid alpha 6 plus updates up to this weekend.

We are wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try it with the latest firefox version? Thanks in advance.

firefox 3.0.8+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.2 crashes on http://castor.org/download.html with a segfault, perhaps this is a case for this bug?

Changed Status to invalid since there was no more info when asked for more info.
Firefox-3.0 has reached EOL and will not get any updates.
Pander if you still see this with Firefox-3.5 please file a new bug using apport.

Ubuntu 8.10 reached EOL on 2010-04-29.
Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

Since this does appear to be fixed using the later versions of Ubuntu and Firefox, we closing it as invalid.

Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
