Firefox browser has been the most stable and lightweight for me to use on desktop in the past, but things started to annoy me when the browser starts to randomly close. Since it's rarely for me to open my desktop I chose to iqnore it for some time and proceed to do a re-download/install the browser yesterday (5/26/2019) and it works find until I start installing an antivirus.

Please share some advise on this.
