firefox keeps crahing when I close a tab or minimize the browser, any fix?
This started happening two days ago, I have not closed any tabs for the past hour and firefox is working just fine. But, it continues to crash when closing a tab or trying to minimize the browser. I did not see a fix listed for this. Please help!

So that is a bug in Flash. Please update to the latest version of Flash, https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/, then reset Firefox. Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
