Creating a new WebDriver raises a StackOverflowError

I'm just trying to set up and have the ability to run example from the Selenium website. However, I narrowed it down to the FirefoxDriver constructor that raises a StackOverflowError. I get the same behavior with InternetExplorerDriver, but not with HtmlUnitDriver.

Following code

import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class WebDriverTest {

    @Test
    public void test() {
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
    }
}

Produces the following stacktrace command:

I am using selenium-java-2.22.0 and json jar that were packaged with download (this is json-20080701.jar)

Also note that when you start a new FirefoxDriver, Firefox starts up and you see a new tab. With the help of InternetExplorerDriver, the window does not open, but it creates the same stack as the JSONObject loop, endlessly. I am running Firefox 12.0 and IE9 on Windows 7.
