Hi,
Firefox crashes whenever I try to download a playlist file from somafm.com.
It crashes with the error:

/usr/bin/firefox: line 392:  8306 Segmentation fault      $mozbin "$@"

I can select to save dronezone.pls and listen with xmms, no problem. Firefox chokes immediately on it though...

I tried it and first time it dropped out, 2nd and 3rd time Xine opened up and played it. I have seen this dropping out action a lot on Firefox and even Mozilla. Though most of the time you can go right back and it works. So not limited to just this site, not that that helps much cause not sure if it is the url code or browser.

I have tried for quite sometime to duplicate this without success. If it is
still an issue reopen bug. If you reopen please include firefox version.
