Firefox is crashing on startup. Happens in safe mode also. Windows XP with no add-ons installed. Installed latest version (8.0) and same thing happens. Any ideas on what I can check?

Does anybody else have any ideas that I can try? This is very frustrating to not be able to use Firefox anymore on this machine.
