Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

This isn't an immediate fix, just a thought for later: but with 4GB of memory, it might be better to switch back to 32-bit Firefox. Even though your system meets the minimum for 64-bit, I think it may use more memory.
