You are using an out-dated version of Firefox (Mozilla Foxfire 3.0.1.1).  The current version is 3.5.  I suggest you first update to the latest version.  If that doesn't solve the browser crashes, I suggest that you run Firefox in Safe Mode, disabling all add-ons.  You will have to enable the add-ons one-by-one to find the culprit.

Otherwise, it is possible there is a conflict between your firewall and another software on your computer -- although I don't know which or if that is actually the case.  What you could try is disconnecting from the internet, disable your current firewall and activate the Windows Firewall.  If that solves the problem of crashes, then I suggest you switch to a different firewall.

I did actually upgrade Firefox to 3.5 and have Opera installed as well.  Both behave the same way with the firewall.  But thanks, I'll give it a try and see what happens.

Again, thank you so much for all your help.
