I am a senior lady. can someone walk me through fixing crash on phone
Having lots of problems last months. Don't know whether to blame it on Firefox though it is crashing in the middle many things. I would love a toll free number to speak with someone. Don't know if it is a virus or? should I hire a geek? Please respond. Can't do without my pc.

hello, first please understand that like most free software we cannot provide support via telephone, so let's continue here in the forum.
from the troubleshooting information that you have provided it appears that there is some adware/malware that is present on your system. so please perform these steps:
- reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
- afterwards go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
- finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.
