It has been a while since I posted this problem. Thank you all for your help. I backed up my bookmarks and made a list of my favorite add-ons and re-installed Firefox. Since the updates to version 8 and 9, I have had no problems. Sometimes a fresh start is required :)

While loading please try clicking the link 'Load basic HTML' on the top right.
Thanks for your answer Vivek, I do know that option is available but I'd like to use Gmail in it's full vibrant form and I hope firefox releases a fix for this!
-> Clear Cookies & Cache
-> Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
- Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
-> Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly)
Check and tell if its working.
Clearing the cookies and cache don't seem to solve the problem as I feared. I've also submitted multiple error reports on this issue and have seen at least 2-3 other users having this problem. I fear it could be an exception caused due to some issue between the Operating System and Firefox.

'Load basic HTML' works. Thank you. However, I agree with prashanthr about wanting to use Gmail is I usually would. Also, Firefox crashed when I clicked 'Get Add-Ons'.
I wonder if doing a clean uninstall and reinstall of Firefox will fix whatever is overflowing in the internal stack.
Did you perform the suggestions mentioned in the article provided in my previous reply ??
