My MacBook's started experiencing kernel panics in the last few months. I've had 4 since the beginning of February, and I'm not sure what the issue is. After the second time, I verified and repaired the start-up disk successfully, and my MacBook was fine for almost two months, before it happened again. I repaired the start-up disk again, and this time it only took two weeks before another panic happened, so it seems to be accelerating?
Here's the report, if that helps anybody:

Some other facts that may be of help:
There's no Apple store anywhere close to me (closest would be Amsterdam, 150 miles/250km) and the repair service I could use is pretty expensive and will take my baby away for upwards of 6 weeks. Mostly what I'm wondering is: is this a problem that can be solved by simply formatting my hard drive, reinstalling OS X and restoring from Time Machine? Or should I buy a new hard drive altogether? (I've heard people talk about DiskWarrior, but that thing is expensive and if I buy it and it doesn't work, I'll be out of funds to buy a new hard drive.)
I'd appreciate any help anybody could give me, because honestly, I can troubleshoot with help of the Internet as much as the next person, but I'm hardly an expert.
Thanks in advance!

Some other facts that may be of help:
- I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.6.8 (which as far as I know is Snow Leopard) with a 250GB hard drive. My MacBook is roughly 2.5 years old. (And thus out of warranty. Of course.) All software is up-to-date.
- All four of my panics occurred while I was using Firefox. I can't find any other shared facts. There wasn't any lagging right before the kernel panic happened.
- Recently, I did notice Firefox sometimes freezes when I open multiple tabs (even when multiple is 2) and when it unfreezes the pixels in the window might jump around a little bit when I move my cursor. This doesn't happen right before the kernel panic, though, and goes away when I quit and restart Firefox. (Pretty sure the pixel thing is a Firefox-related issue, but you never know.)
- I erased the PRAM. Made no difference.
There's no Apple store anywhere close to me (closest would be Amsterdam, 150 miles/250km) and the repair service I could use is pretty expensive and will take my baby away for upwards of 6 weeks. Mostly what I'm wondering is: is this a problem that can be solved by simply formatting my hard drive, reinstalling OS X and restoring from Time Machine? Or should I buy a new hard drive altogether? (I've heard people talk about DiskWarrior, but that thing is expensive and if I buy it and it doesn't work, I'll be out of funds to buy a new hard drive.)
