Everyone say that Don't use it for web aplications. Because It is very slow on the net and sometimes it is crash. I can't understant that. Why firebird is not populer on the net like Mysql or PostgreSql?

I think you are mixing two issues:
1) The use of Firebird for webapplications
2) The use of Firebird over WAN or Internet connections

If network applications is not a problem, then webapplications (re 1)
are not a problem either. However Firebird protocol is relatively
chatty, making it susceptible for network latency and therefor it is not
recommended to connect to a Firebird database over a WAN or internet
connection if performance is important (re 2).

Re 2 has nothing to do with webapplications. And in general having a
database open to the entire Internet is not wise either. And it is
important to note that almost all databases perform (relatively) badly
over the internet.
