Firefox for iOS Crashes

So I've been using Firefox for iOS for about a week now on my iPad Air, where I can't use it all. It was working earlier today when I was on DeviantArt, but now it crashes so hard the iPad sends me back to the login screen!

It is possible ther is an ad on one of the pages it doesn't like. Since the settings are in the browser itself (not the iPad Settings app), however, I can't close tabs fast enough to stop it from crashing the device... even force-closing and reopening the app won't solve the problem.

As it stands, I am unable to provide a bug report even if I wanted to, but perhaps Mozilla and AdBlock can discuss a way to incorporate ABP's programming into the browser on a future update?
