Since I updated 37.0.1 it started crashing every few minutes or so. I never had this case as far as I can remember

it is just 2-3 days this is happening and happened after the latest Firefox update. I have FF on my system for few years and I haven't installed anything new. MY system restore shows only Chrome (from 41.0.2272.101 to .118) and Firefox (from 36.0.4 to 37.0.1) have been updated. Never experiences similar crashes. After few min or 1-2 hour, even staying in the few open tabs that I have had open for long time, it crashes. Two different behaviors. Sometimes shows me a window and asked to close or debug. Another time shows me a window that I can report the crash and restore the browser. Sometimes it also happens that as soon as I start it it crashes but mostly stays for while.
