Black screen, hangs, not responding and finally crashes
Firefox often shows black screen no matter which website I am using. For few minutes it hangs and then shows not responding. Later after few more minutes it crashes.

The crashes seem to be about JavaScript.
You can check for issues caused by plugins and set plugins to "Ask to Activate" on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" page.
- plugins are not affected by Firefox Safe Mode
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.

Did all of the above
1 set plugins to "Ask to Activate" 2 Created a new profile and deleted all old profiles. 3 Did malware check using Malwarebytes and Spybot Search & Destroy 4 uninstalled firefox and deleted all folders related to firefox from c drive (program files, local host, roaming, etc) did a registery cleaning, scand all drives using avast, malwarebytes, and McAfee and then installed fresh firefox. now as i am writing here, firefox got hanged 15 mins before with black screen. and also If I open FB or any other social websites (linked, yahoo, G+) it says some scripts are not responding.
Did you try to set all plugins to "Ask to Activate"?
Plugins are not affected by Firefox Safe Mode and will likely be activated automatically in a new profile.
Yes, I set all plugins to "Ask to activate". After every step I used firefox for 30 minutes and every time it gave the same problem

Firefox is still crashing, getting black screens, not responding, etc., and there is no proper solution yet. Running full scan with malwarebytes, avast, zonealarm, and spybot twice a week. Till now I did not find anything, not even a single suspicious file in my PC. But also the crashing won't stop. Deleted my complete profile from PC and created new one. Uninstalled firefox and deleted each and every file associated with firefox in entire PC. Removed all registry entries as well. Graphic drivers are also up to date. Is there any solution for this crashing, not responding, black screens, hangs, etc., ?
Are you using multi-process (e10s) tabs in Firefox?
Is browser.tabs.remote.autostart set to false (default) on the about:config page?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
