firstly, are you using the latest stable release, or an unstable one that's in testing? If you're using the latter, you can expect these problems from time to time.

Assuming you're using the former, then I can tell you that certain sites to cause FF to crash. Some crashes of this nature are due to bad programming within FF itself, others are due to a bad implementation within a website. Mine very rarely crashes, but (for example) opening PDF files often cause it to slow down for a few seconds.

IE do crash though, just not as frequently on the sites you may be visiting as those sites may be tuned to IE.

Try and see if FF crashes after trying to load anything in particular, such as a certain website. Also, I'm assuming that you aren't having many windows or tabs of FF open.

fo3nix- thanks for info, pdf documents used to crash with i/exp, never with mozilla i am using firefox version 1.04. might need to run a defrag perhaps or run some spyware scans (both of which i havent done for some time)
never had probs before with the websites(e.g autocar) with mozilla or lots of windows/tabs open
