Google Talk Plugin for Firefox Crashing

[ngriffis]

    I am having trouble installing the Google Talk plugin for Firefox. My error message is that "Google Talk plugin has crashed" I have updated my software. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox then reinstalled Google Talk plugin...all to not avail.  I imagine that I am missing something. Can anyone help me with this issue? Thank you.
