You get a Windows Blue Screen with an automatic restart (you can disable the
restart to see the blue screen in the systemcontrol/system/advanced section).
Firefox is a SUer space aplication and that means that Firefox can't be the
cause of a Blue Screen. A Blue Screen is always a problem in one of the kernel
mode drivers and/or hardware. 
It's possible that you only see this Blue Screen with Firefox but that doesn't
matter, it's still not Firefox fault.
You may ask in the german Firefox Forum (http://firefox-browser.de/) or the
english Forum at http://www. mozillazine.org for additional help to fix your
problem.

I suggest that you first try to update your Graphic card driver.
