Firefox keeps on crashing and I have no idea why data has been posted to understand the issue. If anyone can understand it and inform me of this issue that would be great.

Hi,

I suggest resetting Firefox. It solves most of the problems. Check this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems for resetting Firefox.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Try disabling HTTPS Everywhere, or downgrading to v3.4.5 and disabling updating of the extension. I experienced frequent crashes with HTTPS Everywhere 3.5 and 3.5.1 on various websites starting from Firefox 28 until Firefox 29. These were resolved upon downgrading to HTTPS Everywhere v3.4.5.
