I have had similiar issues. Infact, I have stopped using firefox... in the end I knew it was gears and disabled all add-ons ...to confirm that it was the add-ons proble,\n. Turned back others gradually sans gears. Somehow firefox is still botched. :-) Spot on!

But same site will be more than happy to publish beta stuff from big guys :) only google has the guts to release beta software at such a large scale.

I do find that firefox itself gets more unreliable the more add-ons you have at once, not sure if this down to memory leaks or just general slow down.
