I don't understand how you can "just try to go on". If you are on a
breakpoint, the only way out is the blue arrow.

By crash do you mean that Firefox exits and you get a crash reporter
dialog box? If so please use about:crashes to give us the URL for the
stack trace. If not, then please use a different word to explain what
you mean.

Well according to your description Firebug is waiting on a breakpoint.
It's not going to stop doing that until you tell to to go.

In my experience this is caused by a loop:
  error
  call error handler. <----------+
  error handler has and error ^

Please upgrade to firebug 1.2.0 from addons.mozilla.org or
getfirebug.com/releases/firebug.
