Firefox crashes

more options

Every time the download manager opens Firefox freezes. It does this in safe mode with all addons and extensions turned off. It does not appear to report a crash in about:crashes. I have the most recent version of all addons, extensions, Windows, and Firefox. Once I restart Firefox the item will download fine as long as the download manager is not opened. If it is opened it will freeze without 1 second without fail.

Does the issue still occur with a new, empty profile? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic%20Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile

If not, since the crash id isn't be generated, please provide a stacktrace -> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report
