What were you doing when the application crashed?
I was using "gnome commander" to make a duplicate of my home directory on a USB drive. Firefox was open, but not being used. I had opened it before I started "gnome commander" and never went anywhere other than my home page. And that was it.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This bug report isn't very useful because it doesn't describe the bug well. If you have time and can still reproduce the bug, please read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/bug-HOWTO.html and add a description of how to reproduce this bug.

In addition, a Python stack trace would be very helpful, if you know how to obtain one. Thanks.
