Hello.
- Yesterday, after a couple of hours of using Firefox (mostly YouTube and
- other websites), web browser unexpectedly had been closed. Next, a
- dialog box related to the Mozilla Crash Reporter appeared - which
- contained a message, that reporter is disabled (which I did earlier via
- 'about:config' and *datareporting.healthreport.service.enabled* key set
- to _false_) and no crash report is available even via 'about:crashes'
- etc. By the way: yesterday an update for flash-plugin was also available
- (see: 1).
