I've almost never had crashes before this, and it has been 3 or 4 so far today after my upgrade. Could it be one of my plugins I suppose?
[amckay@alan ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i firefox firefox-3.0.14-1.el5.centos

Plugins often are a source of firefox crashes, try to run it without any additional plugins and see if it makes a difference.

The flash plugin often is the culprit.

I'll wager it's nspluginviewer.bin. There was a fix - I mentioned here reporting the bug, and them supposedly fixing it, but it's apparently still a problem. I have *never* had firefox crash like, well, a M$ product, the way it's done for a month.

I know that. As I said, I was the one who reported it, and it took the firefox team nearly a week to find that it was a dependency, and that the crashreporter had the *same* dependency, and so couldn't give a stack trace because *it* crashed.
And yes, I do have both the 386 and the x86_64 versions of curl installed.

Is it the computer hardware problem?
I meet this problem ago. The firefox in my computer sometimes was crashed, because my graphic card was too old . Maybe is it this problem?

Coincidentally, I replaced my graphics card yesterday because the old one was getting too loud. I've had 1 firefox crash since then.

No. While I was still on 3.0.12, it wouldn't crash.

Your card was not "too old". Unless you mean all of X hung, or crashed. But just firefox, no - it's something to do with firefox.
