An old version of Google Desktop seems to hook some process including Firefox. 
A process explorer shows two .dlls belonging to Google Desktop, not justified by a used pluging or extension in Firefox. 
Only where removed (Google Desktop) this was no longer an issue.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start any site which needs or prefers Windows Media Plugin (correctly installed) 
2.Will hang up in a few seconds, crushing ntdll.dll 




Removing Google Desktop, old version, solved the problem. 
No themes, only two instaled but inhabilitated extensions.
Ntdll.dll becames the crash module, but that seems to be more a consecuense than a cause.
