Firefox crashes on some web pages when NoScript is running

I've eliminated as many variables as I can, and as far as I can tell, NoScript is crashing Firefox on several webpages.

For example, if I start Firefox in safe mode with all addons disabled, I can visit imdb.com just fine. But as soon as I enable NoScript, Firefox crashes (with error screen). I tried enabling everything but NoScript to see if anything else could crash it, but I could still browse to imdb.com just fine. But again, when I enable NoScript, there's an immediate crash.

I'm using the latest version, 1.9.9.18 and the latest version of Firefox, 3.5.5.

Is there any more information I can provide to help debug/diagnose/troubleshoot this? Thanks!

  • Check if you've got latest Flash version.
  • Standard Diagnostic, keeping NoScript installed.
  • Link your latest about:crashes entries

I tried uninstalling, rebooting, then reinstalling, and that seems to have gotten it working again. Thanks for the reply.

I have the same problem, and no obvious pattern to which pages cause a crash. Windows XP/Firefox 3.5.5
