Firefox has been crashing repeatedly, often several times an hour. When it first started crashing it was often when I was in a specific Gmail account (we have several), but now it doesn't make a difference where I'm at. I've gone through all the steps on the troubleshooting page, such as checking for updates in firefox, plugins, drivers, firewalls, etc. It also still crashes while in safe mode. What else can I do?

hello, from the crash signature & the associated bug report it looks like the CovenantEyes internet filter on your system is triggering the crashes - can you uninstall this software & see if the crashes go away?

If that's the issue I'll check with the Covenant Eyes support then, for a solution. Thanks!
