Sorry no definitive answer, but two suggestions worth a try:

  1. use safe mode do not make changes in the first window just click on continue
    • if the problem persists; then whilst still in safe mode disable all plugins
  2. try installing a previous version of firefox firefox 3.6 is still supported and secure
