I have pasted my crash signature from my most recent crash. This happens quite often in the past month or so. It will not restore my websites and it started out happening with the computer was idle. Now it is happening while I am working on something. I can't have this because i am a college student and I have to be online especially when I am testing.

Looks like a problem with the JavaScript compiler.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See:

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
