Firefox crashes
I recently was having so much trouble with Firefox on Win 8 (Sony VAIO e-series laptop) that I unistalled and then reinstalled it (and have had to do that about three times in the last 5 months.
Need help -- is it just NOT compatible with WIn8?
I feel bad, because it is my favorite browser.
Please help me.

Try disabling FlashPlayer. At least some of the crashes are FlashPlayer related. Does that solve the crashing ?
If so next steps
- Try in Firefox's safemode but with Flashplayer enabled.
Does that crash or not ? (May be another extension or hardware acceleration)
Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode - Try with Flashplayer's protected mode disabled. Adobe's protected mode often causes trouble on Windows Firefox
- Post any crash report IDs that you get in Safe Mode with either no FlashPlayer or protected mode disabled.
