Firefox seems to randomly crash, mostly when navigating from one page to another. I've re-started my computer, but I don't know what else to do to stop this. It's been happening for over a week now and very frustrating!

If the above doesn't help,

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.
