Firefox crashes when I try to download updates to a number of different programs, etc. I have tried to download LR4 and Adobe flash updates from Adobe plus driver updates from Wacom tablets. Both the desktop and laptop crash. I have switched browsers and was able to download the updates. I first noticed this happening Dec. 12.

This is because you are using the Free Download Manager, please uninstall it and use Firefox's default downloader.

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox location bar (that's where you enter your website names) and press Enter. You should now see a list of submitted crash reports.
  2. Copy the most recent 5 report IDs that you see in the crash report window and paste them into your forum response.

Thanks in advance for your help!
