If Flash Player is installed and enabled then, intermittently, if I close Firefox I get a pop-up dialog-box saying that Firefox crashed and this will be reported to Microsoft.

This problem has persisted through multiple versions of Flash and Firefox, and currently exists with Firefox 28.0 and Flash Player 13.0.0.182. It goes away when I uninstall Flash.
