If you disable the flash extension, are you able to reproduce this problem? -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
I can't reproduce easily - and it's a Flash dependent problem. Disabling Flash completely prevents reproduction, as it depends on a Flash game running at the time I close then reopen Firefox.
Unfortunately, crash here happened in the binary-only flash player for which we don't have any source code, so unfortunately we cannot help you with it. Closing as CANTFIX (because that's our situation) -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers

Fair enough - I thought nspluginwrapper would prevent Flash from crashing the browser (just the plugin instance), but I was clearly mistaken. Is there a clear signature in abrt I can use to spot crashes that are Flash's fault and thus allow me to avoid reporting them to you?
Firefox 3.6 + Adobe Flash 10.1 gives you some plugin isolation, if and only if the feature is enable. See firefox release notes for details. Prior to that, when flash misbehaves, it takes firefox down along with it. If you can reproduce the bug without the flash plugin, then it's likely something that needs review.
