Firefox crashes in safe mode. IE works. Scrolling down facebook post will make Firefox crash. Also crashes on other web sites. Disabled virus software and still crashes.

hi, due to the various crash signatures involved i would speculate that defective hardware might be a cause here contributing to those crashes. please check the integrity of your ram with a tool like memtest.org
