You are the only user to hit this crash signature.
Does it happen with a new profile (see https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles)?

Note 1: you should also update your graphics drivers: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
Note 2: plugins and extensions are add-ons, but two different things: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Customizing%20Firefox%20with%20add-ons

In order to investigate, use a new clean profile with Firefox 13.0.1, then update to Firefox 14.0.1. You can keep your old profile to recover important info once it's understood.
WFM using today's Nightly and Windows 7. Could you please try with a newer Firefox version? Thanks!
