Firefox keeps crashing when I try to watch videos
Firefox started crashing this afternoon whenever I try to watch a video on youtube. As soon as the video starts to load, firefox crashes. This just started today. I was able to watch youtube videos earlier today. I just tried to watch a video on netflix and it too cause firefox to crash. Here are the crash reports so far:

Chosen solution
Since refreshing firefox did not help, I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox before I disabled the Kaspersky add-on extension. That seems to have worked. So far no more crashes when watching a video on youtube or netflix (I don't watch videos on that many sites). I will disable the Kaspersky add-on extension too. It had been automatically disabled by firefox until just recently. Thank you for your help.

Refreshing firefox has not helped.
Youtube currently uses the HTML5 player.

inproc_agent.dll = Kaspersky Inproc Agent
Disable/remove Kaspersky.

Disable/remove Kaspersky.
Are you talking about the Kapersky add-on in the extensions?
Try to disable the plugin first. If the problem continues, disable the main.

Do you know how to disable the main one? Thanks for your help. I appreciate it a lot.
Sorry, I don't know Kaspersky.
