hello, when you can start firefox in safemode, please enter about:crashes into the address bar and copy the latest few crash report ids from this window & paste them here into a forum reply... this will help us understand better what is causing those crashes.

maybe the norton toolbar plays a part in it. if you're in an active subscription you can probably upgrade to the norton 2013 product line free of charge - otherwise please try disabling the toolbar in firefox > addons > extensions while you're in safemode.
