Firefox 60.0.1 just installed and is now regularly fully crashing OSX 10.12
Hi, I have just installed Firefox 60.0.1 and it is now regularly and fully crashing OSX 10.12.6. Never had problems with previous FFs though v.59 often was pausing. The crashes often happen on closing a window or quitting. I have a few add-ons, which I am starting to disable for testing. Any suggestions welcome... cheers
