Every time I open firefox and try and search on any web site, Firefox just stops working unless I reset firefox. I do not want to do this every time, it only stated when firefox upgraded to 20.0.1

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Try backing up your Firefox files, then reinstall it.
