Hi all!
Few minutes ago I tried to listen to "new" MP3 format sample using firefox 2.0.0.13 with ubuntu gutsy 7.10 (kernel 2.6.22-14-generic, gnome 2.20.2, RAM 1011.4 Mb, CPU Pentium4 2.66 GHz, constantly updated) opening :
javascript:window.open('http://www.repubblica.it/popup/servizi/2008/compressioni/compressioni.html','popup','width=340,height=190,scrollbars=no');void(0);

Well, it turned to be *nothing*(neither music nor video) so decided to
shut the window down BUT this closed ff as well!

I open a terminnal&run ff using the command: " firefox --sync" and
that's what I got:

I think it'd something related to javascript engine BUT not so sure :-)

I just fancy knowing possible causes a/o remedies to this,

stay well&safe by
