nope, no problems here. What do the error BSOD say?
What does the winXP Event Viewer say?

No problems on either of our PCs. Both running XP pro SP3 and Norton
internet security 2010 (which is a lot better than when I gave up on
Norton a few years back).

FF3 crashed quite regularly in the beginning, but it has evened out
now. However, I lost my Foxclocks with the upgrade and I'm not happy
about that. I followed the directions I found for recovering them and
it didn't work, so I'm clockless now.

FF3+ is back to crashing again, which is very annoying because it was
extremely stable up to v3. No BSODs for me, FF closes but everything
else is fine. I run XP also.
