Does anyone know how to check for a problem?
The first thing to do is disable all firefox plugins and see if the problem goes away.

I already tried that, no luck :)
In fact,I only installed 3 plug-ins yesterday, had nothing before that.
Something interesting that I picked up is that Thunderbird will close randomly (very seldom though) as well, so I don't know if it's Firefox specific though.
I have picked up that it happens more often when my PC's memory usage is above 2GB RAM, and memtest86+ didn't indicate any memory problems. If I have less tabs open, it happens less often, but the more tabs I have open, the more often it happens.
Hi,
I have the same behaviour here on my known-good memory (8GiByte) 'workstation', both for Firefox (have about 100 tabs open, spread over four windows) and Thunderbird, w/Thunderbird having 'uptimes' of a few weeks regularly, while FF tends to crash every ten to 15 days (give or take).
To sum it up: I don't really think it's a memory problem. It can't be excluded, of course, but maybe there's more crash prone stuff in there.
