Firefox 60 crashing when opening gMail

following last 2 updates of Firefox, I have been unable to go to gmail without Firefox crashing. I can access all other gsuite items like google docs and google calendar without a crash occurring. There is no warning of the crash either - Firefox just shuts down. I am using Windows 7, 64 bit, running Firefox 60 (64 bit). PS. IE runs gmail with no issues on the same laptop.

SOLVED!: The conflict is with Add-on POPUP BLOCKER. Once removed, FF works normally with gMail.

Please note that FF crashed a few times today but I don't see crash reports associated with them. It appears to "close" not "crash"; hence no error.

Interesting; I thought I would try starting FF in "Safe mode" ( all plugins deactivated). Then I went to gMail and it started up! So the problem seems to be narrowed to a conflict with plugins... what now?

Please advise.
