Today (2008-07-18), when I visit slashdot, my browser crashes. I discovered that if I disable javascript, then I can view slashdot fine. In the past I did not have this problem.

I'm on Linux with Mozilla version 1.0 (yes I know this is way out of date, but at work we use RHEL and do not update anything).

I tried watching the javascript error log, but since the browser crashes so fast, that told me nothing. If you need any help pinpointing this, just let me know!

Oops, see that this was already submitted by somebody who has this problem with Netscape. Will mark as dup.
