Details

It is #90 top crasher in 4.0b9 for the last week.

This dll is part of premieropinion:
http://www.premieropinion.com/Home.aspx

Avira considers it as a spyware:

Summary: Blocklist pmxg.dll spyware because of crashes [@ pmxg.dll@0x12da1 ][@ pmxg.dll@0x9ef3 ] ) → Blocklist pmxg.dll spyware because of crashes [@ pmxg.dll@0x12da1 ][@ pmxg.dll@0x9ef3 ]
Does premieropinion add itself as an addon, or just drop the dll? That is, are we looking for addon blocklist here, or DLL blocklist?

(If the latter, I'd love a patch to https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/xre/nsWindowsDllBlocklist.h for review!)
After further investigations, these crashes are correlated to the RelevantKnowledge extension.
May be there is also a pmxg.dll DLL in this extension and premieropinion is not implicated in these crashes.
So it is probably a dupe of bug 615518.
