When I right click anywhere on any page (did not test if I can right click on a flash movie)  the browser instantly crashes... here is a list of my extensions:

Adblock Plus 0.7.5.3
Autohide 1.1.5 [DISABLED]
BugMeNot 1.3 [DISABLED]
Extended Statusbar 1.2.7
Firebug 1.05 [DISABLED]
Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer 2.0.45 [DISABLED]
Free Download Manager plugin 1.0
Html Validator 0.8.4.0 [DISABLED]
Nightly Tester Tools 1.3
Personal Menu 3.0.9
Screen grab! 0.93 [DISABLED]
SearchStatus 1.21
StumbleUpon 3.16
Tab Mix Plus 0.3.6 [DISABLED]
User Agent Switcher 0.6.10 [DISABLED]
Web Developer 1.1.4 [DISABLED]

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open firefox
2. Right click anywhere
3. Crash
Actual Results:  
Browser crash

Expected Results:  
Context menu should load

I don't know if it might be my extensions that's causing this, but the only extension I enabled that was not enabled by default is "SearchStatus 1.21" which I don't think modifies context menu's.
We have added the entry "firefox safemode" in the Windows program menu for you as user. If have have a problem, try to load Firefox in the safemode (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode).

The next thing is that if you report a bug the next time, please be sure that you searched for existing bugs before you file a report.

I have searched, but could only find a couple of non relevant right click bugs...
I had exactly the same problem with FF3 crashing always after a right click. On safe mode this problem is absent. Should I always run FF3 in safe mode? I have no expertise to try to repair it by myself by getting extensions or any other solutions given in this list.
The safemode is just Firefox without extensions and Third-party Themes.

If it works in the safemode then an addon is crashing Firefox.
For your problem: Go to tools/addons and disable the addons one by one, restart Firefox and look if it works.
IF you have the "free download Manager" addon installed deinstall it in the addon-manager.
