Icon8 firefox browser

Is anyone having issues with their firefox in the terms your watching a video and it crashes? For the last two weeks it has become impossible view any video online as the whole thing crashes under two minutes!

I have no problem using IE & Google watching online videos, I have uninstalled and reinstalled but the problem remains with firefox.

I am not having any troubles with Firefox on my PC. It has been very stable.

Didn't Firefox recently install a porn filter that automatically interrupts said material when it is detected

My Adobe Flash Player is 17.0.0.188 the latest one. I'm just checking something else I will get back shortly

No that did not work.

Looks like all those crash reports may have paid off. Got some download from firefox and for the moment all is well again, just hope it lasts.

Oh dear back to square one, crash crash crash crash.

I'm having issues with Chrome, seems to be the reason my PC occasionally slows way down. I open the Task Manager and there are often 5~8 chrome processes running. When I kill them and start over, it seems to fix the problem.

This is the reason I don't have Chrome on my new laptop. It once allowed an extension to be added on my old machine, without my permission, that I could not get rid of. Slowed things to a crawl. Now using Opera with no problems.
