Hi all,
I am using Mozilla Firefox 4.0 and since last few days, It was crashing again and again. Is there anyone who can help me out in this issue.

Use the latest version of Firefox, currently 9.0.1

Softstag is right - upgrade to the latest version
But while you are at it, also upgrade any Firefox plugins and extensions

However it is worth noting that from version 4 onwards Firefox seems to have become less stable - certainly some of the specialist press remarks on it.
I find I get at least one complete Firefox lock up each day - but that MAY be because I've got an unusually large number of security extensions loaded

It could be due to one of your add-ons. Try starting the safe mode option of Firefox (without add-ons). It's under the Help of the Firefox menu button.
