Hi Niki-,
I am sorry to hear you are having issues with your web browser freezing.
Besides the recommendations from the prior thread, you may want to try starting Firefox in Safe Mode as there may be an extension causing issues with your web browser. Starting in Safe Mode will disable all add-ons for troubleshooting.
You could try running anti-virus software linked below: How do I get rid of malware?
Have you followed up with any of the recommendations from your prior thread? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1269684
Let me know if I could further assist.
How are you opening this Word Doc?
Firefox doesn't support this file format natively, so you would have to select a suitable application (NOT Firefox) when you get an 'Open with' or a 'Save File' dialog.
