A Fresh installation of Firefox Hangs my Computer

I am running Windows 10, and have recently started experiencing trouble with Firefox. After trying a lot of other solutions from the support forums (including creating a new Firefox profile), I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox from a fresh download. I experience the same trouble: very shortly after starting Firefox, I hear constant disk activity, and Firefox becomes unresponsive. My only choice at that point is to end the program using the red "X" (program close button). As soon as I do this the disk activity ends and the computer runs normally.

I cannot include troubleshooting information with this post because I can't keep Firefox running long enough.

The same performance issues happen with Firefox running in Safe mode. I had to resort to Microsoft Edge to post this question.

Any troubleshooting assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

Once again I am forced to use Edge to respond, because Firefox immediately becomes non-responsive. I was able to copy the data (below) only after starting Firefox with a "Refresh".

Firefox seems to be stable today while running in SAFE mode.

Unless I run in Safe mode, the problem still exists: Firefox becomes unresponsive shortly after launch.

Response to Fred McD: I don't know where the additional (incomplete) link text came from. It is not part of the Home page group of sites that open at startup.

Response to Phillipp: The update seems to have resolved the problem, at least for the moment. I will continue to monitor for a few days, and advise if I have additional trouble. What changed with this update?

more options

the update contained a fix for various stability issues and the cause for the increased "firefox not responding" issue that could be identified so far: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/41.0.1/releasenotes/

more options

Two hours later - still stable.

more options

Update one day later:

Generally stable, but getting two constant errors. One is the familiar "Unresponsive script" error that hangs Firefox, and the other addresses the Flash plugin. Both of these are frequent and both hang up the browser.
