most likely a flash issue.

please test if it goes away if you uninstall flash.

maybe you have libflashsupport package installed? Try to remove it if
you have.

if it still crashes, this might indeed be a firefox issue. But i think
its unlikely. Before we can tell we need you ti try to disable your
extensions in Tools->Addons as well.
