Freezes on google maps
When I open the google maps website it functions normally for about 3-4 seconds, then firefox completely freezes not just that tab. Firefox is up to date and it happens with all addons disabled. maps seems to work fine when I access from other country domains (co.uk or .de) Also I have no problem with the site on other browsers. It does not generate a crash report.

You could try a new profile or troubleshoot mode. The former could save you a lot of time.

I had not tried that. I just did and maps worked fine in the private window. Not sure what that indicates, but I cleared my cookies but that did not fix it on non-private.
It freezes when I have all addons/extensions/plug-ins disabled. I opened a new private window and it works fine without freezing. I thought that might mean it is cookies or something, so I reopened a normal(non-private) window and cleared all of the cookies and tried it and it still froze.

I started a new profile and it's not freezing now, so I guess that fixed it. Thanks
