BBC News site has been crashing Firefox for about a week. HELP!?
The site comes up briefly and then crashes, I get the reporting window, I click restart, it tells me there is a problem with making the report and then it restarts.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
