FWIW, I just tried this in Firefox (set javascript.enabled=false) and went to my bank's website to see how it would fare. Firefox crashed. Tried again with no other tabs open, still crashed. Crash report sent.

OTOH, in Chrome the website actually works fine and feels more snappy with JS disabled. So, thanks for the tip!

Can you share the crash report IDs from your Firefox's about:crashes page? Can you share a link to your bank's crashing web page? I'd like to try to reproduce the crash. Thanks!
