Inside that HUGE post was that info.  I have 2GBs of ram and 1GB of
swap.  It is not even using half that when it crashes.  No swap is used.

I don't get the crashes with just a few tabs/windows open.  I may try
running memtest next and see what that does.  Maybe it's a bad stick of
ram.  I didn't think about that.  Of course, I recently compiled OOo and
it did fine and so did gcc.  They use more ram than Seamonkey does but
will test anyway.

Still open to ideas tho.
