Crash report box details cite fault module ntdll.dll. WIN 8.1.1. Not a FF access issue but a pain. FF stats show no crashes since 31.0 installed but crashes even in safe mode. Last FF Crash Report shows 2 days ago and under FF 30 so I won't post. Logoff crash just started with 31.0. Is this a Windows crash and not a FF crash?

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash. However the appcrash may also mean that you should update your drivers and run a virus scan. Afterwords I would highly recommend a clean reinstall.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box. (Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the ID's. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like)

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

Then restart.
