Hey guys-

For those of you who have not yet installed 0.9 of FireFox you might want to backup before you do. Some people have reported cases while upgrading that their systems have locked up, then upon restart it exicuted an infinate loop sucking all system resources until all of the programs crashed.

Some users have had to nuke their HDD because of this.

That is the exact same problem that others have experienced with this version of FireFox.
