CentOS - Jul 2006 - firefox 1.5.0.5 packages

I installed the new firefox 1.5.0.5 packages and had a few issues.  I had 
read a similar post on the nahant list.  I would doubt that this is a 
centos-induced problem.  The browser crashed when opening the extensions 
manager and also with a very simple webmail page.  I have reverted to the 
firefox 1.0.8 packages and these problems have disappeared.

If you upgraded directly from 1.0.8 to to 1.5.0.5, you probably need
to reinstall all of your extensions.  I recommend (1) write down what
all of them are, (2) uninstall them all from your present firefox
1.0.8, (3) upgrade to 1.5.0.5, and finally (4) install extensions
again.

Even upgrading from 1.5.0.2 (centosplus) to 1.5.0.5, I'd recommend
reinstalling extensions.  In my experience firefox always crashes on
the first -- and sometimes also second and third -- launches after an
upgrade when there are any extensions present.
