This crashing and reporting just started this past week. I have tried all of the "trouble shooting" that I understand. It mainly happens on Facebook. Very slow when loading and scrolling down page, then crashes. Seems like other sites work fine. Thanks, Modris

Chosen solution

Contacted Kaspersky technical support about - kaspersky inproc agent. They sent over the solution - basically had to put Firefox under "trusted application". Looks like it worked. Thank you everyone for your help.

Looks like same issue again. I noticed that all of the crashes are "application" related. Should I use and select "defaults"?
