A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

thanks for all the suggestions. most are beyond my comprehension so i'll see if i can get a more savvy friend to translate. meanwhile, i realize my description of the error msg was not accurate. see link for what actually comes up. if this prompts a different (perchance easier...) solution, i'm all ears. otherwise i'll try your other ideas.
