The crash signature is:

    strcmp | AuthCertificateCallback(void*, PRFileDesc*, int, int)

To connect to my school's wifi I have to go through this page that says something like, "This site isn't trusted" then I have to click the "proceed anyway" button so that I can go to my school's page where it asks for my student ID and PW so that I can connect to the internet using their wifi. Whenever I open firefox it just crashes while it tries to load the webpage concerning the security certificate. I haven't had this problem before and before when I was running firefox 4 beta and RC. Now I have to use another browser to connect to the internet before I can use firefox to browse.
