Have you tried this help article on Firefox Crashes? It could be due to one or several reasons. Sometimes it's just a matter of updating the plug-ins or it could be due to malware/spyware.

In my case, Firefox 8 is running a little slower on some web pages, especially my hotmail which I believe has to do with the Java Console not being compatible with FF8.

Hope the above article helps narrow down the issue and help solve it.
