    FFR Randomly Closes While Playing

    It's not really a bug but I couldn't figure out where else to post it. When I'm playing FFR sometimes it will just randomly close Firefox. Also if I'm watching a video on youtube or something and someone signs on MSN it will also close Firefox. This has just been happening recently, used to not do this at all a while ago. Can be really annoying if I have a FC going and this happens

    Anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it?

    I've had a similar issue with the beta. Sometimes, while playing, it'll suddenly close out, even in the middle of a song, and load up the regular. Quite freaky.

    Maybe they are related?

        maybe you both watch the same porn and got the same virus =o
        or maybe you jus need to download a new firefox, or your possibly hitting an assortment of keys that makes firefox close.

          Try updating your Flash Player. An outdated player often causes strange bugs.

            I have this happen to me as well. It's rather rare, and has never happened to me on websites outside of FFR. I dunno if it's Firefox itself, a virus, or if FFR acts weirdly if you have certain apps installed on Firefox or something. I've been unable to find anything that would even give me an idea of what the issue is.

                My keys are set to a,s,k,l so I don't think that's the problem

                I updated my flashplayer and the problem still occurs. So now I am updating my MSN, going to try playing again now and see if I still have this problem.

                  could also be a virtual memory type issue? do you reboot your computer often? or have a lack of RAM?

                    My computer is always on for the most part. I have 1.5Gigs of RAM as well.

                      sounds like a lack of RAM/VirtMem issue is crashing FF.

                        I think you have spyware. I've had convo's on msn automatically close when i was on an infected computer.

                          1.5GB isn't a lot, but my old computer never did that on FF and only had 512MB of RAM. (Although Internet Explorer loved to randomly close on it.)

                          I checked a few forums. It could possibly be a Java issue (no clue why), try updating that.

                            Alright just updated Java, give it a go again. Thanks for all the help so far.
