Look for a font problem.
I had a problem where Mozilla would crash on certain sites or certain
email that had foreign characters. There is an issue on redhat bug site.
Search your system for zysong.ttf.
If it isn't there in /usr/share/fonts/zh_CN/TrueType type in
ln -s gbsn00lp.ttf zysong.ttf
This fixed my crash. It was on an upgraded system and a fully clean
install of FC1
