Firefox crashes randomly when viewing webistes

Firefox 13 just randomly crashes when visiting any website. I've checked for malware and there is none. Safe mode causes the same issue. Also, there is some issues where Firefox would just stop responding. It wouldn't say Not Responding but the program just freezes and I have to go into the task manager and kill the process. Could the new flash update have anything to do with this? Flash 11.3 has been causing some serious issues with Firefox.

That is a problem with the Flash plugin

You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

I uninstalled Flash 11.3 and reverted back to 10.3. Adobe needs to fix this issue with Flash immediately.
