Firefox problems

You know, Firefox used to be a good web browser, better than IE, but now it's just as buggy as IE. Alert windows popping up, even though I disabled them, history being wiped out at random, and Firefox crashing. This started happening the update before last, has anyone else experienced this? I may go to Opera if it's more stable, but I don't know yet.

If you're using extentions remove them all and see if the problem goes away. If it does, installed them one by one and see which is the cause.

I installed 2.0.0.4 (if I haven't done it yet, I don't remember everything) and I'm going to see if that fixes the problem. I don't have any extensions Fass, but thanks for the tip.

My firefox has been fine. It only randomly crashed every once in a while.

Fass is right with the addons.
Take a look at ones you are running. You could review mozilla about them. If you see a few comments about crashing, then you know to remove it.....

If it happened right after the patch, something might have screwed up in the patch install. Do a full reinstall and repatch.

Yup.
I'm using 1.5.0.11 until now - hopefully the update to ...12 will change that.
(I know that there's already a 2 version out - but that fucks with my mouse's scroll-wheel.)

I have add-ons for FF and I have no problems with the version I'm running, which is the same as you, Wilgrove.
Maybe check for spyware on your computer?

Well I'm running 2.0.0.3 right now, and it currently downloading .4, so I guess I shall see...
