Thanks for the response. I "cured" my problem by lowering the system RAM from 1GB to 512MB. Yeah, I know that sounds stupid but I believe I have a hardware problem. I discovered what I believe is a memory controller issue while doing a warm (thermally) cold start. System has been error free since the RAM reduction, albeit a bit slower! Seems that there is a timing issue in Firefox that causes things like this. On a different issue, I have an Apple Imac that Firefox crashes on when trying to print with a Canon IP2600. Everything is OK when using the old workhorse MP130. Go figure.
