One thing that occurs to me is that an extension or a combination of extensions might be causing the crashing.

Have you tried running the "Safe Mode" version of Firefox? You can find it this way:

Start ==> All Programs ==> Mozilla Firefox ==> Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode)

Try running this Safe Mode version of Firefox and see if you still experience the crashes and let us know one way or the other.
