No problems with my FF and VBF today...
in case this could be a location problem i am in australia
Doubtful. More likely it's a plug-in/extension of Firefox.
from couple of days even i am facing this problem with both IE and FF....crash happend at random but most of the time when i right click on any post URL.....i tried on different Machine as well as from different location.
still happening to day
firefox 2.0.0.15
no new plugins or extensions
Next time try to take a screnshot or note the ad and also try to save the page source code as a txt file.
The crashes used to happen to me on Firefox 2. Not sure what caused it though. Now I'm using FF3 and so far I haven't encountered a crash.
I was on here yesterday using FF3 and had no problem browsing the forum.Quote:

No problems at al with IE7 :D
No crashes here using Firefox 3. I'm in Australia too, by the way, and I don't think the ad system splits Australia into subregions, so we should be seeing the same ads.
well after reading other posts here i upgraded to firefox 3 and would love to say that my problem is resolved, but unfortunately not, i have disabled the few addons i have installed and have been running for months, i guess this evening my firefox 3 has closed about 20 times
Does it also happen if you are not logged on, but are browsing anonimously?
Have you tried both VBForums & vb-forums?
If you have a second UserName, does he also crash?
Does the problem only occur when you use fire-fox to browse vbforums or using other browsers as well?Quote:

Not only that, but some of the avatars (including my own) quit animating and just now started animating again. They still worked ok in ff3 and ie7. This did not affect all animated gifs, just some of them.
as far as i know, i really try to avoid using IE. no other websites have crashed my firefox (either 2 or 3) since i started this threadQuote:

i have been letting all the error reports get submitted to firefox, maybe they can sort it
had not been crashing so much today, only occassionally, but just started to crash all the time since about 4.45pm
Were you logged in?
Does it happen if you are not logged in?
has not happened at all so far today, waiting to see what happens after 5pm, will try not logged in, not much to do if not logged in
since my previous post about 10 minutes ago my browser has crashed 15 times
i logged out, then the browser did not crash during visits to several pages in the forums, but on attempting to log back in i had much trouble getting back here to post
crashes even when not logged in

Scan your computer for viruses and spyware and remove anything you find! Also don't post multiple times in a row use the edit button.
I just found this thread:

You might want to try disabling javascript.
[EDIT]
After googleing around a bit, I discovered someone who has a page that he knows crashes FF, and provides details about how it crashes FF.
If you go here: http://agent55.blogspot.com/2007/01/...h-for-you.html
It has a link to the crashing site.
