Firefox on OSX continually crashing
After an update, a couple of weeks ago Firefox is now completely unstable. It continually crashes. The It will have 2 icons in the task bar. Neither of these can be stopped by using force quit. The only solution is to restart the computer (rare to have to do this on a Mac). I uninstalled & reinstalled the software, but its made no difference.
