User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050606 Firefox/1.0+ Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050606 Firefox/1.0+ I'm seeing an issue with the "Sanitize DeerPark on Shutdown" preference. I set the preference, restart firefox, go to Tools->Options and firefox crashes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Tools->Options->Sanitize Settings a. Enable Sanitize Deerpark on Shutdown b. Enable Ask me before Sanitizing Deerpark c. Click Ok to dismiss Preferences Dialog 2. Shutdown Firefox - the Sanitize Dialog Box appears. Click Sanitize 3. Start Firefox with blank page as home page 4. Try to click on Tools->Options Actual Results: Firefox crashes. Expected Results: I should be able to modify Browser Options.
My initial observation is incorrect, Greasemonkey might be at fault here. Here is the modified description: 1. Download and Enable Greasemonkey 2. Download some user scripts 3. Set pref to Sanitize Firefox on shutdown 4. Restart Firefox (blank home page might be a red herring) 5. Select Manage User Scripts menu-item Result: CRASH If I disable Greasemonkey, Manage User Scripts Menu-item disappears, Firefox works perfect.
Summary: Toggling Preference for Sanitize Firefox causes Firefox to crash → Enable Greasemonkey, set pref to Sanitize Firefox on shutdown, restart Firefox, select Manage User Scripts menu-item, CRASH
What version of greasemonkey were you using? There have been several changes to greasemonkey recently with the newest one being 0.5 beta for now.
This is a dupe of 297570 the crash occurs when moving over the GM Tools menu item. Please reopen if you disagree. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 297570 ***
