Every 30 mins. while FF 9.0.1 is open, I get 3 events in Windows Event Viewer at the same exact time -- #4624(account successfully logged on), #4672(special privileges assigned to new logon), and #7036(Windows Error Reporting Service starts). Then computer hangs for 2 minutes, during which the light for disk drive activity is constantly on. At end of hang, there's another event #7036(Windows Error Reporting Service stops). No error messages appear. Any ideas for a fix?

Just wanted to add that I've tried everything in "Firefox hangs" article and that this doesn't happen with IE9.
