Over the last few days, Firefox has been crashing a LOT. No particular page or activity seems to set it off. Is anyone else having this issue?

HI. For a few days now, I have been having issues with Firefox randomly crashing a LOT. Sometimes I can't even get it to work for more than 10 minutes. No particular page or activity seems to set it off, it just crashes back to Windows no matter what I am doing, and I see the crash reporter. Here is my system's info.

CPU AMD Phenom II X6 1030. Motherboard MSI 990FXA-GD80 16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM Multiple hard drives for a total of just over 10TB Storage HIS AMD Radeon HD 6970 2GB PCIE Video Card Soundblaster Fatal1ty Titanium PCIE sound card Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit edition.

Here are the about:crashes info you might need.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

To Enable SafeMode

  • You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.
  • Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See "Creating a profile":

It looks like Ghostery is causing your crashes, try to disable it from your add-ons.

I already tried the obvious stuff, like a reset and new profile. I turned off Ghostery, so we will see if that fixes it. Thanks for the replies.

Well, it wasn't ghostery. I removed it and it's still doing it. I just found out my Wife's system and my Daughter's are both doing the same thing.

Now that you've taken Ghostery off, please give me the new Crash ID's, I want to see if it changed at all.

I'll send them the next time it happens.
