Firefox: will frequently refuse to load pages, requiring restart....

I use FireFox (2.0.0.12) on Mac OSX 10.5.2 and frequently experience the following problem:



Web pages will refuse to load -- just get the spinning status indicator and "Loading..." on the tab (the application isn't frozen -- just seemingly looking for the web page)



--- Using the "open in Safari" extension, the non-loading page(s) will open immediately in Safari.



--- If I shut down FF and reload the page, it will (90% of the time) immediately load fine.





Any ideas what might be causing (or how to fix) this behavior?



(When I use Safari for extended periods of time, I do not experience this problem, but I'm wedded to FF and all its incredibly useful extensions...)



Thanks.
