Ah, I see, that was a crash from a program that ran as root. The code that opens a browser as the user when apport-gtk is run as root is still a bit buggy. So, can you reproduce the bug with:

  $ killall update-notifier
  $ sudo touch /var/crash/*network-admin*.crash
  $ sudo /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk

? Does it make a difference whether Firefox was already open or not?
