Chosen solution

This could be a problem with Trusteer software (RapportTanzanxx.DLL).

Make sure that you have the latest updates of your Trusteer software. You can try to contact Trusteer for support.

Try to update or uninstall and reinstall Trusteer Rapport and if that doesn't help then disable/stop the program for now.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>

Download the current full installer for your Rapport programs. Then remove Rapport from your system. Reboot the computer.

After, run Firefox (do not install Rapport for now).
