Every single time I open firefox, after a while it freezes and I have to close firefox. Even in safe mode, without all add-ons it still freezes. This problem does not happen on a specific website.

Hi Qwerty018- I'm sorry to hear this. There is an article on how to troubleshoot Firefox when it hangs here:

Firefox-hangs

Hopefully that will give you an idea of what to do next.
