I had the same problem! Google plugincontainer,then look in results for Minefield plugin-container.exe crashing flash • mozillaZine Forums.Below that you'll see a link-how to disable it.Click on link, & you'll find directions on how to change settings. I found this ended the problem. Good luck.

Can not install Firefox 3.6.4 or 3.6.6 without plugin-container.exe, but you can disable it. Test after disabling and restarting Firefox to see if plugin-container.exe is causing the issue(s). After disabling, if a plugin crashes (Adobe Flash, Silverlight, or Quicktime), the whole browser will crash. Enabled, only the crashing tab will fail.
