Firefox crashes as soon as I open it in Windows 7

I am running a 32 bit computer & I use Windows 7. I have not had any problems with Firefox until the past week or so. My system will crash no matter what site I am on & now I am unable to even open Firefox. My shortcut icons do not work either. I reinstalled Firefox & that helped for a day or two but now I am back to the same problem.
