Thanks so much. I saw the message "do you want to attach a file" but I didn't know WHAT file or where it was. I'll save this for future reference.

So usually when a Ubuntu program crashes then a tool called apport intercepts the crash and instructs the user on how to proceed to report the crash (that was the window you saw when firefox crashed). Usually when a crash dump file is generated it's saved at the /var/crash/ directory so apport asks you if you want to attach that file to your crash report. The file you have to attach is /var/crash/_usr_lib_firefox_firefox-bin.1000.crash.
