on updated C6 x86_64 Firefox ESR 45.1.0 is seg faulting on various sites, mainly media sites. Tried uninstalling flash-plugin 11.2.202.616 but problem persists. Work around: installed Seamonkey from epel repo Anyone else experiencing unstable behaviour of FF 45.1 on C6?

Since I already had some difficulties with RH6/C6 upgrades changing the way things worked (or didn't, such as telinit), I just did a yum downgrade FF and and kept using my tools as tools.> <snip>Bill

Some things that can help here: 1. A site where you always get a crash. 2. If you also have access to RHEL-6, test the firefox from RHEL-6 on the same site to verify if this is a RHEL or CentOS issue.

Have yet to properly investigate the cause and feedback, as it's a bank holiday. Was going to look properly next week. jh
I also have this problem. Am still running previous FF version. So ffmpeg appears to be at fault, need to see if it's a version thing or something. -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!
