Firefox crashes at random. Sometimes it will crash five or six times in a row. Sometime it will go days with no crashes. I have included the most recent crash code.

Heya,

please try a clean installation: See Uninstall Firefox from your computer for details and reinstall Firefox.

I have completed a clean installation. I have taken Firefox completely off of my computer and re-installed the latest version. It still crashes at random.

You can also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.

I have now successfully ran each of the scans you recommended. They all come back with 0 problems now. Firefox is still crashing :( Any other ideas?

hi, Please run firefox in Safemode. Check for addons which cause the problems.
