Can you start with a clean profile? If your machine is configured normally:
firefox --profilemanager
Make a new profile and use that one. If you get the problem to continue, then it's a real problem. If it goes away, then your profile got corrupted. This commonly happens during upgrades between firefox versions, especially when you have themes, extesions, configuration settings setup.
Hmmm! Worth a try.
Any feed back on how you've gone with a new profile? Seems I'm seeing the same 'poof' issue.... reading a webpage than Wham! There she goes!
Well, I preserved my bookmarks and whacked the .mozilla directory. Since then Firefox has not gone "poof". Maybe that's the answer, but I find it strange that I need to do this on a dot.release upgrade.
This is a common issue when upgrading any mozilla product (mozilla, firefox, or thunderbird) ... and removing your profile is almost always the first thing recommended any time there is a problem after an upgrade. It is especially true if you have added any extensions to the mozilla products.
