firefox stops working on a daily basis

On a daily basis, Firefox stops working. I get a pop-up about some plugin stopping. I have not special Firefox plug-ins. I think the failing plugin couples with my internet connection. Very frustrating to suddenly lose connectivity. This started about 2 months ago with an update from Firefox that I automatically received. I have open my old IE9 and when Firefox fails me I use it. I never have this issue using IE9 so none of the other plugins are causing the problem. If I can't get a fix, I'll have to move on to a new browser that's more reliable.

Sorry you are having problems. Obviously Firefox should nort stop working on a daily basis, mine is ok. Please let us have a screenshot of the plugin or fully describe exactly what it looks like and says including any links or addresses.

I note your plugins include FlashPlayer some from McAfee, & Media related plugins. It crosses my mind that you may have clicked on a Fake Update website or Advert and got malware. Please scan with all the tools listed in this article
