Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Was using FF when it crashed and I was using Blogtalk radio's interface
when everything shut down, and then the FF would pause trying to open,
then it just stopped and would not open... I've been having to click
twice on FF to get it open even before I just recently (1day ago) added
the BlogTalkRadio toolbar addon.

Seems like Blogtalk toolbar might have had something to do with it
crashing. It has been removed.

However, since removing it FF was still having problems. It was
stalling, then it would just stop. Then repeat. However, before today I
could repeat by clicking the icon a second time and it would usually
start up.

I am now hardwired to the net in order to get things to work. Seems like
it also had something to do with being wireless. Which has been kind of
a touchy issue too. But stabilized with the use of a netgear card I had.
Yet lately the wireless would work without it since upgrading to hardy
heron... at least most of the time. But without the card all I see in
the panel is an icon showing two computer screens which I thought should
show the wireless networks available but never does until I insert the
card.

Sorry about all the confusing descriptions. But I figure hey I'm a 60
year old none geek, I should get a little slack.

Here is info from FF about.
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092510 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.3

Hardware
Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop

I have several addons.

All-in-One Sidebar (think I used this with FF2)

Cooliris Previews (used with FF2)
Dictionary Tooltip
Download Statusbar (disabled)
Download Helper
FireFTP
FoxClocks (used with FF2)
Foxytunes (used with FF2)
mediaplayerconnectivity (which I'm not sure I am using correctly so it might be set wrong)
MetroPipe Privacy Bar (used with FF2 never had any problem)
mid
Morning Coffee
Noscript (used with FF2)
ScrapBook
Tab Kit
Toolbar Buttons
Ubuntu Firefox Modifications
United States English Dictionary
Wired-Marker (don't use much)
Zotero (installed for a while but not used yet)

Now How do I followup on finding/getting the fix? Is it emailed?

In the meantime point me in the right direction.
