Scrolling will cause crash, clicking a link will cause crash, opening new tab will cause crash, and just sitting quietly and looking at the screen without doing anything will cause crash.

Adobe plugins won't open and cause crashes and hangs. (And the instructions in FF Support to go to Adobe and "click on logo" is garbage- there is no logo on the page linked in FF.)

FF is the latest version, being run on Windows 7 Home Premium Using Avast, Spybot S&D, Malwarebytes. Stand-alone Adobe products work fine
