It looks like one of your extensions (speedtest) is not compatible with the latest version. You can start Firefox with add-ons disabled by holding the Shift key while you start Firefox. For more info, see Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.

From that point, go to the Add-ons manager and uninstall speedtest. See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems.
