Most recent crash report ID: bp-3ca88213-ca9d-41e5-8a52-24db72160210

Mozilla crashes, then, when it opens back up, it cannot load webpages. It can long webpages' ip address, but it cannot load their DNS. The only fix I have found is to open up Internet Explorer, reinstall firefox, then open it back up. From there, the internet finally works/connects. This issue has been going on for about a week now.

yes, you are right - this new version is just fresh "out of the press" & it contains some changes that we hope can solve the exact crashing/page loading issue that you have described there...

Must have literally just been released in the past couple hours! I reinstalled firefox just a couple hours ago.

I have installed the update. I will report back if Firefox crashes again.
