When I do this google search: http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&channel=s&hl=en&source=hp&q=korean+raw+beef&btnG=Google+Search Firefox immediately crashes and tells me that a crash report couldn't be generated. I'm fully updated and I don't think I have any offending plug ins.

Your plugins list shows outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks. 

# Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.0
# Java Plug-in 1.6.0_11 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Update the Java and Shockwave for Director plugin to the latest version. See: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp#jdk (you need JRE) http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ --- See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes and Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly)

Hi cor-el,

I tried updating my plugins but it does not seem to have fixed the problem. I am looking more into the possibility that I have an offending plugin but no luck yet.

Thanks, Steve

I just disabled all of my plugins via tools>add-ons>plugins but the problem did not go away.
