4 gb ram, using up to date Win 7 and Norton . Notice no pattern but perhaps it could be Adobe related (also up to date) since I have had Adobe PDF's open and/or downloading.

this crash is triggered by the norton confidential component - please disable the extension or uninstall the software from the windows control panel if you don't rely on it.

for reference also see bug #812186.
