The only problem I've seen recently was on a machine where Java hadn't been installed, and when it went to a Java-using website it crashed repeatedly. In the end I went there with IE and that installed Java for me, and then going back with Firefox was fine.
I think it's BBC news website. Have a look and see if it's always crashing on that. I think the scroller might use java and if you leave firefox open with it running, the memory used goes up cumulatively till it gets a java OutofMemoryError and crashes on yer ass. I get it a lot because I run other programs which use java too and I guess it magnifies the problem. I even raise the java memory ceiling on the other apps....
Hmm, that is my home page. It usually seems to crash on my friends' page though, or at random other times, but that still could fit in with what you say.
