Recently, Firefox won't open any URL and I have to shut down the program and start again. There is no pattern to which sites freeze and many of them re ones I frequently use.

Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?

I notice that you have quite a few content blocking extensions installed, this is not recommended.

Thanks, but I've had those extensions for years, so I don't think that's the issue.

Try disabling your extensions and see if that makes a difference.
