Error on opening Firefox for Mac 56 says "your tab has crashed" creating new tab doesn't help. Why can't I use Firefox

I'm running the latest version of Firefox for the Mac. I've just uninstalled and reinstalled it and still get the same error. It says: "Gah. Your tab just crashed." Creating a new tab gets the same error. Firefox is now unusable." I've attached a screenshot of the error.

I'm using High Sierra (OS X 10.13) on an iMac.

I've gone into preference and tools/add-ons and disabled everything and still get the same error. I then reboot in safe mode and it works without giving me the error. Since I've disabled all extensions and don't have any add-ons, what is the issue? Why does safe mode work and not standard mode?

Just Fyi: a interesting URL http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/mac-software/macos-high-sierra-latest-version-problems-fixes-features-compatibility-3647580/ states a security update Oct 5th should get if not installed it then there is this page of the above http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/mac-software/which-apps-wont-work-in-macos-high-sierra-3664177/

This just maybe is a Mac glitch for the time being......
