Firstly, Thank you for the help, @iamjayakumars i think you've tried to help me before via twitter.

Anyone ?
See:
Try a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 19.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
- Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
Thank you i'll try that but , i think ive already done that as ive just done a clean install of windows which put everything into Window.old folder .
I Downloaded a clean version of firefox & havent brought anything over from Window.old folder as i wrote most of the vital site/passwords down . Then ive deleted window.old folder .
Do the crashes also happen in Safe mode (disables the JavaScript JIT compiler)?
Did you try a new profile?
Ive not done another clean install of FF as ive already done one when i did a clean install of windows . It's still crashing so time to give up and uninstall it . Here's the last 4 crashes .

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
