So after talking to the development team, it seems like the content process is crashing for some reason. Do you see anything in about:crashes on these machines? This might be something better discussed in bugzilla as a bug versus here.

But often their DLL would be buggy, or it would make bad assumptions about how Firefox works, or the way Firefox works would change in a way that they didn't expect, and ultimately Firefox would crash because of it. Most people don't know about all this, so they just assume that it is Firefox's fault that it's crashing and get mad at us instead of at their antivirus. We can sort of do some things that prevent this from happening, but even if we do it really early in startup, people might inject their code even earlier than that.
