When you update from 0.8 and earlier to 0.9.x, you needed to manually go and delete some profile folders (C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Phoenix for 0.8 and earlier) because the new version uses C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox. I suggest uninstalling Firefox 0.9.2, deleting both of the above profile folders if they still exist, and then re-installing. You may even want to install 0.8 and then immediately uninstall it to clear out the registry entires that were left.

[Note that the Application Data folder is hidden, so you may need to enable Show hidden files and folders.)

I've been using Firefox as my default browser for 3-4 months. While I never had that problem, I had enough random problems to convince me that Firefox isn't quite ready for prime time. I uninstalled it yesterday, and I'm going to wait for v1.0 to come out and try it again. I really like the browser, and hopefully they'll get the bugs out.

Are you keeping, cache, cookies, etc cleaned? I had a few page loading problems that I attributed to that. I also found that rebooting periodically seemed to keep it running smooth.

Firefox doesnt crash as much anymore (especially when several *.pdf tabs are open).
And it also comes with a free pop-up blocker.
