Does it always crash or frequently crashes? Does it only crash when multiple tabs are open or even if only one tab is open?
Could it be related to how you have set up your preferences?
Since it is Iceweasle, you must be using Debian, but which version? Stable, Testing or Unstable?

ok got ahead of myself there I've got squeeze (6.0.5) stable installed and it's been doing it with both a couple tabs and only one, it's almost like it's gotta get warmed up or somethin.
I just checked my preferences and changed a couple things and it seems to be running better now, but I've been more or less playin around with what I sorta remember and what I'm relearning, from here and other linux sites as I was told I'm gettin glassy eyed from readin!!
