How To View Crash Reports In Firefox 3

If you are one of those unlucky people who seem to have more trouble since upgrading Firefox to version 3, you probably experienced more crashes than the entire time you ran version 2.x.

And it seems there is no light at the end of the tunnel with the latest security update to version 3.01.

With Firefox, you can view all past crashes to help with troubleshooting problems. Just type the following command in the location (address) bar and press enter.

Fortunately for me, I have not had much problems (and try to stay away from loading too many plugins), so I have no crash reports to display.

But having this available can help with troubleshooting current and past Firefox problems. If needed you also have the option to remove reports by clicking the button.

Which makes me curious as to why it's now available (built-in) with version 3 and not with previous versions. It almost seems like the Mozilla developers were expecting troubles with this version.
