This doesn't happen for me on Firefox 13.0.1, 64-bit 12.04. Since this
is a crash bug, there are two options:

1) Follow the steps at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs?action=show&redirect=DebuggingFirefox#Crashes
to run Firefox under GDB and post the output log file as an attachment
here

2) Close this bug, and then use Apport to file a crash bug the next time this 
happens. An Apport dialog should come up automatically right after the crash 
which should assist you. Or you can just search for a .crash file for firefox 
in /var/crash and then run this command
apport-bug /var/crash/NAME_OF_CRASH_FILE.crash
which will file a new bug with the required info.

Marking Incomplete for now, please take either one of the two actions.
Thanks!

Title:
  HUD search causes firefox to crash

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Searching for any text causes Firefox 13.0.1 to crash on Ubuntu 12.04
  ( both 32 & 64 bit **1).

  Test case:

  1. Hit ALT to bring up the HUD search box
  2. Type one or more words into the textbox.

  Expected result:

  1. HUD appears ready to search
  2. Results appear depending on the search term.

  What actually happens:

  1. HUD appears ready to search
  2. Results appear, however firefox crashes shortly after.

  == Additional information ==

  Running firefox in safe mode makes HUD ignore firefox. In this
  situation Firefox doesn't crash.

  **1: I can reproduce this bug on 64 bit Ubuntu. Peter Cawkell is
  experiencing this bug on 32 bit ( see coments )
