It looks like getComplexValue() is to do with getting your user prefs.
Try closing Firefox and Thunderbird, and then mv ~/.mozilla

I already did that and it does not solve the problem.
Hum, well two ideas: see if this changes anything

$ firefox -safe-mode

and

$ strace firefox

to see if we can get a clu

Also... is about:plugins one of those things that crash?  What plugins
are listed, if not?

Well there is a problem. about:plugins shows what the firefox default
configuration thinks it is using but it may not actually using them.
To find out what is really being used you have to go to:
about:config and change the parameter:
browser.download.hide_plugins_without_extensions to false from true.

I can do this change without problems but Edit->Preferences crashes as usual :-(
Then you can go to: Edit->preferences->Content->Manage to see what is really being used.

However, since the OP can't go to Edit->preferences without crashing we
have a real problem.

Yes, but I don't think it has any thing to do with the plugins. Remember Thunderbird has similar problems and it has no plugins.
