I don't question the symptoms that you're seeing, but trust me: jQuery may be triggering the problem, but it isn't *causing* it. jQuery, and JavaScript in general, simply doesn't have the kind of system access needed to cause a crash of this sort. It has to be something along the lines I suggested - either a hardware problem or a system-level software problem.
It wouldn't hurt to do a virus scan, but I would lean more toward a hardware or device driver problem as the real cause. -Mike > From: Magnificent > > What gets me is I've never had this problem with FF before > and when it crashes, it's ALWAYS executing jQuery code via a > click handler.
