Chosen solution

thanks, those all appear to be similar out-of-memory crashes and i'd suspect that one of your addons might be involved. you could either try to refresh firefox or manually disable a number of your addons and see if this is making a difference (i'd start to look at kaspersky's one in particular)...

Philipp, thanks for taking the time to look into this. I started right where you said and disabled Kaspersky and haven't had a crash since - I didn't even go through trying all the rest of the addons. I had recent;y upgraded from Kaspersky 2015 to 2016 Anti-virus so I'm guessing the "improved" product was the culprit.

Thanks again -
