For the last 4 days (I believe since I was upgraded to version 58) firefox has been crashing my computer. The crash does not always happen, but it is sometimes repeatable. Firefox crashes different websites (youtube, amazon, and other random sites) When Firefox crashes it freezes computer. Then computer automatically reboots and asks if I want to boot into safe mode.

First, let's see if Firefox created any crash reports.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>.

Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box and paste them in.

Did you have any issues when you ran Firefox in Safe Mode?

Try coming to this website and poke around. Any issues?

If there is a problem, Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?
