My Firefox keeps freezing after startup, even when I start it in safe-mode.

Firefox starts okay, but when I try to do anything, i.e. search anything, or go to a website, it instantly crashes. I've tried starting it in safe-mode, but nothing changes. I've updated my Firefox to the most recent version, but that didn't help.

Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites. Is the problem still there?
