When "watch" button is pressed on book TV cspan website, v3 Firefox crashes, and offers to report error before shutting down.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. http://www.booktv.org/
2. Click any "Watch" button

Actual Results:  
No special setup.

Expected Results:  
Crash screen.

Played video.
Which Plugin is used to play this video ?
What is the version of this plugin ?
You can see the version in about:plugins (enter as URL) for most plugins.

If the Mozilla crash reporter comes up, send the report.
After that start firefox againm, type about:crashes as URL and post 1-3 crash IDs here in this bug.
I have now switched all my video plugin settings to "always ask."  The v3 Firefox  crashes without asking for a new video player choice, and without the crash information screen.
FYI: This works fine in my Seamonkey trunk (all the content belongs to Gecko=SM=FF in that case).

Please disable the flash plugin -> tools/addons/Plugins/...  because flash breaks the crash reporter at the moment and try to crash again.
