Hi,

As of this morning, Firefox crashes on start up. It looks like it automatically updated today so not sure if this is linked. I have tried reinstalling but no joy. It won't open in safe mode, just crashes. I've created a new profile, still not joy.

Crash info as follows. Help gratefully received!

hi, thank you for providing your crash ids. unfortunately this crash is caused by websense endpoint security software that is running on a device. please make sure that all its components are up-to-date. in case your computer is part of a managed enterprise environment, please get in contact with your it department about this issue again. more information is available in bug 1181091.

in a larger enterprise using the extended support release (esr) version of firefox, which receives security updates but feature updates only once every 10 months, might also be a better option compatibility-wise: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/faq/
