I was just about to try that when your email came. :) If I use a 
different user account using MWM as the window manager, firefox works. 
Using that same user but running firefox from a KDE session, firefox 
will crash! Switching back to MWM fixes it again. Seems to be a 
KDE/firefox thing.

They just bought out the company that recently bought out our local ISP. :)
