Firefox crashes every time I access specific websites
Firefox instantly crashes any time I attempt to access specific websites (weather.com, for example), or, more peculiarly, Wikipedia articles about specific topics. For example, I can look up apples or tuberculosis just fine, but it crashes if I look up, say, an entertainer (examples being the pages "Stephen Fry" and "Dr. Dre") or, inconveniently, given that I'm a history buff who needs quick access to summaries, any Wikipedia article on a country (ones I've tried include the pages "Finland," "Hungary," "Romania," "Belgium," "Vietnam," and "Uruguay." Is there a way I can fix this? I really need to be able to access Wikipedia's country pages.
