It also happens in 3.04, usually when a flash application site is running, like game village, wink or gala bingo.
The black windows are also evident when it does not crash completely

Many bad Firefox behaviors are in fact caused by one of the many third-party 'themes', 'extensions' and 'plugins'. These will go away with a new profile - that is, when Firefox is restored to default settings and without any extensions and themes.
Could you please try with a new profile and let us know what happens?
