Firefox crashes
Since Firefox was updated to v32 it keeps crashing after a few minutes. I have tried the following: 1. Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. 2. Resetting Firefox to default settings.
I haven't seen it crash while running in safe mode. I tried running in non safe mode while disabling addon's 1 by 1, but it would still crash even with all of them disabled. The only difference I saw was that in non safe mode it looks like the themes are disabled. I am only using the default theme.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

Thanks, that keeps it from crashing. I had tried toggling that setting before but missed the need to restart Firefox.
