Chosen solution

Everyone of those crashes is related to the nmSvc.dll module, which is used by a program named Covenant Eyes. A Bug report on this issue was filed back in the day of Firefox 12 Beta2 - on 2012-03-23. The Mozilla developers haven't been able to replicate those crashes on a regular basis. Regression testing of Firefox went all the way back to Firefox 4; determination was made that this issue is related to the Covenant Eyes application and was not a Firefox regression.

Conclusion reached was to not use Covenant Eyes.
