I go to the webpage, it automatically starts the video and within seconds the following Firefox error pops up (see below) then when I then chose the option to close the program, I get an error that says Gah! Your tab just crashed. When I chose "Restore this tab". It crashes again. Email me for 2 screen shots. They would not attach. The following is the report:

You can try to modify multi-process settings to see if this has effect.

  • set dom.ipc.processCount to 1 if it is currently set to a higher value (4)
  • disable multi-process windows in Firefox

You can disable multi-process windows in Firefox by setting these prefs to false on the about:config page.

  • browser.tabs.remote.autostart = false
  • browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

I have all the updates but it did not fix the issue

If there a reason you are using Version 45.0.2 ? It is very old.

Try downloading Firefox and re-installing it.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-older-version-of-firefox?cache=no Be sure to read everything here.

If you still want to downgrade, look under; I still want to downgrade. Click the Directory of other versions and languages link. Look for the directory of the version that you want. But, remember that old versions may have security issues.
