Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).

If that doesn't help then do a clean (re)install.

Download a fresh copy of Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html) and do a reinstall of Firefox on top of the current version.
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
