Hello,

Do you really mean Media Player Classic? Both the original and the fork are no longer being developed. You should use the latest version of Media Player Classic Home Cinema. I've been using it for nearly a decade alongside Firefox with no issues. You have a 64-bit operating system, so be sure to get the 64-bit version.

This may be unrelated, but many of your plug-ins are outdated. I spotted the following; to check for others, see the Mozilla Plug-in Check page.

Flash Player (Shockwave Flash)

Adobe Reader
Adobe doesn't make the download links to the latest version available to Windows Vista users, but it does work under Vista.

VLC
