In Firefox 1.0.6 and also Deer Park Alpha 2, accessing the web-site www.sony.de

2. type URL www.sony.de
3. press enter and wait

Actual Results:  
the browser crashes immediately

Have you tried safe mode with a new profile?
A talkback ID would be nice. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Talkback

Works for me with Firefox 1.5 Beta 1(1.4)
The same problem exists with http://www.sony.co.uk/. Firefox 1.0.7 (Solaris and Linux - Ubuntu 5.10 - versions) will crash on this page if Javascript is enabled.
Need talkback ID to get anywhere on this.

The website has loaded fine for me with JavaScript enabled and using Sun Java machine, as Sony use flash I think for some of the website illustrations, might be worthwhile trying updating your version of the Flash player, as sometimes there are known bugs which get fixed in the latest versions.
Works for me:
