  hi
  for the last week, every time I try to add a video or photo, Firefox crashes. I click the icon for embedding a photo or the icon for video, it starts to bring up the dialog box (there’s a shaded area of the screen) and then bang, firfox shuts down. I reopen FF and try again but have a 100% fail rate. it works perfect in IE but I don’t use IE.

  Is anyone else having this problem? what changed a week ago? (I’m not aware of FF upgradinng but then it happens so automatically).

  I use FF 3.0.10.

  any help appreciated

  thanks

  It happens to me too. I’m using IE into the problem “sorts itself out”!

  There is a lot of discussion about the problem all over the forums:
