Firefox 30.0 frequent crashes
I've been having this problem since version 28.0, if I recall correctly. It persisted throughout 29.0 and 29.0.1, and has only gotten worse in version 30.0.
The browser has frequent crashes, sometimes at irregular intervals, sometimes only a few seconds after each restart, in most cases it happens when opening a new tab, but I wasn't able to pinpoint this due to it's irregularity.
I've tried following the troubleshooting guide, and my results were as such: • In safe mode the issue appears to be resolved which immediately made me suspicious of my add-ons • I ran Firefox with Hardware Acceleration disabled, and still got the problem, so I can safely assume it's not that • I then went on with disabling all of my add-ons, and re-enabling them in groups, but was once again unable to pinpoint the cause due to the irregularity of the problem
I'm hoping that with this description and the data I'm submitting you can help me sort this issue out, as I would rather not have to consider switching browsers and losing out on all the functionality I've grown to love in Firefox.
Thank you in advance, and do let me know if you require me to take any more troubleshooting steps.

It would appear updating to the 31.0 beta has fixed the majority of the problem.
Thank you for trying.

One thing that slipped my mind, occasionally I will get a post-mortem notification that plugin-container has crashed.
We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.

Here they are. I'll have a look at that article and let you know if something new comes up.

and
Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 11.0.07 Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 11.0.05
Having multiple versions of the same program could cause problems.
I've removed the duplicate Shockwave Flash after posting the crash IDs and have successfully removed the duplicate Adobe plugin (which I'm still not sure how it even got there to begin with). As for the other two, the only ones I have with those versions are: Google Talk Plugin 5.4.2.18903 (As well as Google Talk Plugin Video Renderer 5.4.2.18903) And Silverlight Plug-In 5.1.30214.0 Which do not appear to be duplicates to me, unless I'm somehow mistaken.
In any case, Firefox still crashed after removing the duplicates.

One of the reports says;
- 845414 RESOLVED DUPLICATE Frequent random crashes since installing "MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update" 1.7 on OS X 10.8.2
- 808374 RESOLVED FIXED Crash on shutdown after mozAudioContext().createBuffer()
I really don't see how that helps me, seeing as I'm on a Windows 7 OS.
