Hi,

In the address bar, enter:
about:plugins
and press enter.

Perhaps you need to uninstall one or more of the listed plugins.
Extensions are another likely culprit - take a look at those also.  As
a last resort, rename/move your ~/.mozilla directory (or create
another user) and see if the problems go away.

HTH,
Chris
