First off, you are using an old version of Firefox. Please update to Firefox 31 Update Firefox to the latest release. Even if you are using the ESR release, 31 is the new version.

After that, see if this crash still happens.

The bug reports show the OP on the release update channel.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
