You need to do some troubleshooting to figure out why Firefox is crashing for you, and fix the problem.

Are you on a (slow) dial-up connection?

Do you have any other connections configured?
- Network Connections > Advanced > Advanced Settings > Adapters and Bindings
No other connection..
Did you check the Knowledge Base crash articles and tried the various suggestions?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
