With firefox in safe mode, and even with WebGL disabled, I am 100% guaranteed a BSOD upon loading certain websites in firefox. Every. time.

(This does not happen in chrome or IE) So far, out of over a hundred sites visited, three websites have triggered BSODs... and this is 100% replicatable. If I want to trigger a BSOD, all I have to do is open firefox and visit wellsfargo.com, target.com, or ruelala.com (and sign in). (fwiw, I dgaf about target or ruelala, but I had to visit them for work.)

The vast majority of these (see attached image or http://i.imgur.com/JknxTE8.png) were triggered by visiting one of the aforementioned websites, mostly target.com (attempting to pinpoint the issue). No fix I've tried thus far has solved the problem.

A BSOD is normally a system problem, so let's start there.

Make sure to run the Microsoft Updater program.
