Windows 7 Premium Firefox crashes and the crash submission screen pops up whether in standard or safe mode. I uninstalled firefox, downloaded the latest version and installed it, but have the same result. The issue does not seem to effect Internet Explorer

The computer I am sending this from is NOT the computer that the problem exists on.

Upgraded to 8.0. Same issue. In the brief seconds before the crash, I can see Firefox trying to open Two tabs where before it would only open one. A new crash report was generated that looks more extensive:
