There's not much to go above to work out what's going on. Here's a few
ways you might be able to narrow down the problem:
Are you consistently getting cores when visiting a particular page? Can
you run "pstack <core file>" and see if the cores are always showing the
same stack traces ?
Are you always running the same version of Firefox ?
Finally, if you move ~/.mozilla to ~/.backup-mozilla and start again
(with a fresh profile) do you still see the cores ?
cheers,
