The error/system message when crashing is socket(): Protocol not supported Illegal instruction (core dumped) and a core is dumped. It is funny, as long as I do not drop down any menus, this crappy Firefox 3.6 on my box runs for several seconds, then crahses unmotivated - no matter whether .mozilla has been brand new or containing the old stuff from 3.5.7. Whenever I drop down a menu, the dead comes fast. Regards, Oliver
