So I’ve upgraded to 1.0.6 and now there’s a problem with conflicting extensions. I finally found out that the crashes I was seeing were related to Live HTTP Headers and SessionSaver conflicting so that I couldn’t upload files. However, I was using both on earlier versions and it didn’t seem to conflict.

So now we see the Eclipse problem – an application based on plugins can’t efficiently test interactions between them, and clearly the sandboxing is incomplete in FF. In addition, who can take responsibility for the fix – the core team, the SessionSaver people, the Live HTTP Headers, or does it take a village to fix this bug?

I love Firefox, but this is driving me nuts. I use both extensions regularly and want to keep them active since it is a pain to restart the browser every time I want them – so now I’m reduced to using IE to upload files! Talk about counterproductive…

And sadly I’m not in practice enough to be able to suss out the issue myself. Sigh.
