It's also not a problem of Firebug.

You are probably not using a Mozilla-built Firefox. If you install a
mozilla build you have two choices:
  1) 32 bit. The problem is gone.
  2) 64 bit. Crashes. You can get the crashreporter URL from
about:crashes.

Firebug is an extension, not in mozilla terminology a "plugin".

Yes, install 32 bit Firefox supported by Mozilla,
