Windows 7, Firefox 30

After changing how Firefox handled cookies (changed to forbidding 3rd party cookies, asking permission to set cookies), I rebooted my system, and Firefox would not start - I got the error message in the question. I uninstalled Firefox, and then re-installed, and Firefox ran fine. After some hours, I closed Firefox and rebooted the system, and again, Firefox hangs upon start, and I get the Plugin Container has stopped working error message.

Since Firefox won't work on my Windows desktop, I'm using my Linux desktop to look here for help. The problem details reported are: Problem signature:

Thanks in advance!

I found xmarks plugin might have caused the problem. I did the repair (xmarks settings > advanced > repair) and problem solved

That is good to hear.

Please flag your last post as Solved Problem so others will know. You will first have to unflag my other response first.

plugin-container.exe is crashing repeatedly. The error code is 0x80000003, the faulting module is mozalloc.dll, version 33.0.0.5397, fault address 0x00001425. Hardware acceleration is disabled, and I have disabled all plugins in an attempt to cure the problem (only Acrobat and Flash were enabled, and Flash is up to date).

(Edit) I'm running EMET 4.1 - if this is memory-related might that be significant?

Here are some crashes from the past few hours (many more if you want them)

The crashes are intrusive but Firefox itself is not usually affected - so isolating the plugins works as intended.

(I tried creating a separate thread for this but the process stalled at Stage 3)
