Crash reporter keep popping up.
Comodo asked to restart to apply changes, I did not close FF before that happened. Now FF does not open, the crash reporter comes up. I have selected restart and close with no success multiple times, the reporter comes back up. tried to redownload FF did not help. Unable to get trouble shooting info has I am doing this report on Explorer.

hi, unfortunately comodo was malfunctioning today and mistakenly quarantining parts of a couple of programs which caused these firefox startup crashes as well. apparently they have released an update till now that has rectified the issue, so please make sure that comodo and all of its signatures/components are up to date: https://forums.comodo.com/av-false-positivenegative-detection-reporting/comodo-is-reporting-everything-as-a-malware-since-this-night-t121994.0.html
afterwards reinstall firefox with the installer from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
in case this doesn't help either i'd recommend to ditch this unreliable security software...
