There is nothing we can do if the whole system hangs or crashes (Blue Screen) because Firefox is a true Userspace application and can not cause a hang or crash. It's possible that Firefox triggers a bug in one of your kernel mode drivers but that is not Firefox fault. It's possible that you get this only with Firefox and only with one Version but that doesn't matter.

I'm sad that I can not help you but you could try to change your video driver to a newer or older Version and also looking for newer sound driver.
It can be also caused by a third-party Firewall because such a Firewall comes with a kernel mode driver for filtering.

There is only one thing that Firefox could do: 
Allocate the whole available memory and that would make the whole system very, very slow and it could take a minute to open the windows taskmanager.

marking invalid because this is no Firefox bug

Ok. maybe this is not Firefox bug, but there is no BSOD, just everything looks like a picture taken few seconds ago, no mater which application was running, and realy often it happened even if i didn't turn on the firefox browser, so i would not be so sure about the other aplication bug. Like i said it was happening only in RC2 and v. 3.0.2.
