I was prompted that there was an update to Firefox which completed successfully. After the update Firefox began to crash and the conclusion I have come to is the Adobe FlashPlayer.

Yes I did try that. One thing whats the description for the Flash plug in because I cant find it anywhere to even enable or disable it which at this time is disabled because when I click on the link to "check if your plugins are up to date" in the Add-On Manager it prompts me that "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Flash. Please upgrade to the latest version." I clicked on the link and attempted to install. I closed out of Firefox and then opened it after the install was complete and still no Flash. Thanks

The Adobe Shockwave Flash was causing the crash because the plug-in needed to be updated. After enabling and disabling and then enabling back things look to be solid.

Matt G thanks for the assist!
