Probably not, but they're coming out quite fast these days and apparently without a great amount of testing.

I noticed an issue with firefox 9.1 that when you go into sleep mode or screensaver the plugin container crashes

Hey everyone I'm GLaDOS I help people with their computer problems.
Please if I give instructions to a thread poster and you're are not him do not follow my instructions please do not follow them, but instead start up your own thread asking for help if you have the same issue.
This is because everyone's problem is different and you could seriously damage your computer by following instructions not given to you.

Mozilla re-releases Firefox 9, backs out fix causing crashes
A day after it shipped Firefox 9, Mozilla quickly released an update after backing out a bug fix that was causing some Mac, Linux and Windows browsers to crash.

It's a browser. I use it to browse. It gets me to all my destinations. I like it. It works fine. I tweak it a little. I like my add-ons & themes. They continue to work fine in each update.

Nuff said.

I will wait for 2 or 3 weeks before upgrading Firefox
