Every time I try to open Firefox nothing happens. After trying several times I start getting an information box blinking for less than a second every time I try, and after trying that several times the info box stays open informing me that Firefox has crashed and I can continue in fail safe mode. I have tried removing all addons, and I also tried creating a new profile, but the problem still conintues.

That is a problem with a plugin (plugin-container).

You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

I've tried both upgrading realplayer and downgrading Flash, but the problem is still there.
