Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:36 testcy]:
 > I tried every version again and 8.0.4 and 8.5a6 both are crashing and
 also the latest test build. Previously when I briefly tested the test
 build it was not crashing, but now it is crashing. Also, note that the
 problem does not happen with every web-page, as in the description, but
 with certain web-pages and randomly, so it's difficult to reproduce. And
 am I the only one that uses Comodo and Tor? Shouldn't others report a
 problem if there is one?

 They might just give up and say "Tor Browser is broken, I use something
 else instead". That said we have and had different reports with
 Antivirus/Firewall software breaking Tor Browser. There is not much we can
 do in those cases, though. :(

 That said you seem to get crashes _without_ having Comodo active, so there
 might be something else that is wrong. The only difference between build
 _3 and _4 is that the former enables debug output and the latter not. I
 wonder if you could try a bit harder to get _3 crashed (and get back with
 some crash debug output). If not that's okay, but then I need to think
 harder about how to get some hint about what is going on on your system...
