 	What NetBSD release/arch and firefox version are you using?

 	I've been using Firefox-2.0.0.X (up to X=9) on NetBSD
 	i386/4.0_RC[1234] with various plugins and its been very
 	reliable (with the exception of 2.0.0.8). This is using
 	modular X11 from pkgsrc, all compiled for PIII with various
 	other optimisations enabled.

 	Add-ons:

 	    Console2, del.icio.us Bookmarks, Flashblock, Header
 	    Spy, Live HTTP Headers, Tab Mix Plus, Unicode converter,
 	    User Agent Switcher, Web Developer
