We have dozens of Server 2012 R2 servers were Firefox doesn't launch and comes up with the following error; Problem signature:

We use Kaspersky Server 10 Endpoint Security too.
Any ideas? Regards Simon

Hi Simon
The information that you have supplied suggests it is connected to the anti-malware software that you have installed. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted/Unsubmitted Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
Thank you for your help!
More information and further troubleshooting steps can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly) article.
Hello
Thanks for coming back so Quickly. There aren't any sent reports and Firefox doesn't open enough to get the page as the crash seems to be immediate. Is there any other way of getting the error dump?
I can start investigating on the Kaspersky AV side in the meantime. Funny thing is that I have machines with the same combination that work so its a bit of a weird one.
Thank you Simon
Hi
Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
- On the keyboard, press [Windows] The image "Windows key" does not exist. + [R]. This should bring up a Run window that contains a text field.
- In that text field, type %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
- From that explorer window, double-click on the Mozilla folder, then double-click on Firefox and then on Crash reports. Double-click on submitted.
- Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to View > Arrange Icons by > Modified to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
- Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
- Paste each ID with bp- into the reply window on the forums.
Thanks in advance!
Already checked in there and there isn't a Submitted folder so I am guessing it has never been able to Submit any.
I am updated the AV but don't think that has helped (was on version 10.1 and now on 10.1.2).
Next will try removing the AV and see if it works on one of the server.
Will keep you posted but if there is any other way of troubleshooting please let me know.

Yes, the PCH_1D_FROM_exploitblocker looks interesting.
Firefox 68 introduced a new Launcher process which better inhibits DLL injections and that can create problems with some security software that wasn't updated in time. Of course, that was more than two months ago, so perhaps it's not relevant, but just in case, here's more info:

Hi Simon, although not directly on point, you might consider testing the Extended Support Release of Firefox 68 for improved feature stability.
Got the enterprise version now but still same issue. Will report to Kaspersky as well as likely they can do something to resolve this from their end. Thank you for your help everyone.
Will update the post if I get some progress. Regards Simon
I have been working with Kaspersky and they have a Critical Fix
critical_fix_core_1(15262)
This has not been released as of yet but will be being in the not too distant future and appears to resolve the problem.
If you have other users that use Kaspersky Server Protection then it would be worth making a note that it will be resolved soon.
Regards Simon
