Nothing is flagged in the reports. I called for more help.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?


Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?

Sorry to say, it did not permanently fix, its crashing again. Other ideas?

Note that these instructions are relating to the Firefox browser itself. The (i) button is the one at the left hand end of the addressbar. That will have a tool-tip saying Show site information The right arrow is the one that appears when you click the (i) button. more information will then appear at the bottom strip of the next popup Permissions is the tab icon at the top of the big popup window

  • See this article Firefox Page Info window_maintain-offline-storage for screenshots. It is a long article scroll up and down to see it all.
