The template "crashsig" does not exist or has no approved revision. js_Interpret

Crashes with this signature can have a variety of causes. One identified cause is bugs that involve the JIT (just-in-time) compiler. Disabling the JIT may help, at the expense of making some JavaScript slower.

  1. Type about:config in the address bar and press EnterReturn.
    A warning page may appear. Click Accept the Risk and Continue to go to the about:config page.
  2. In the resulting page, search for the preference javascript.options.jit.content.
  3. Double-click on it (setting the value to False).

The general crash troubleshooting steps may have steps that help with these crashes. You can also try providing a few crash IDs when you ask a question; there may be useful information in these crash reports that isn't in the crash signature.
