Firefox is making me seasick... jumps all over the place because of ads and then the tab crashes every couple of mins.. is there a fix for this?
Since new design has been added firefox has become unstable.
Trying to read articles becomes impossible as the text is jumping all over the place as the ads load and reload.. then after a couple of mins the tab crashes and i'm given the option to continue.. i do and the issues start all over again.
I was trying to download a few items earlier and it turned into a race to see if I could get to the download before the page crashed.. didn't always make it.
Are there some settings I can change to stop this? otherwise I will find an alternative browser.. which is a shame because I have used firefox almost since its inception. I have had a few error reports automatically created and sent during the issues.

Has always been a fix for ads for years. Ads are not from Firefox they are from where aver you are visiting..
Ublock Origin https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ and Ghostery https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ghostery/ work well together to block ads.
Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser. Restart Firefox
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
Thanks for the accessibility tip, that has stopped the bouncing around but I am still getting the crashes.

Above is the page i was lookng at that kept crashing in firefox.. I have tried other pages with similar effect.
I opened this page in MS edge and it didn't crash in there.. could this be the result of another setting?
I have no issue with the page.

You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
