Firefox browser crashed and I can't open it at all. Mozilla Crash Report pops up upon opening firefox browser. I tried restarting. I tried reinstalling. But these did not worked.

I even did this: 1. Click the Windows Start button, and press + R. Type in "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\submitted" (including the quotation marks) and click OK. 2. In the resulting folder will be a text file for each crash report you have submitted. Using the View menu, arrange them by date to find out which is the newest file; and double-click on it to open it. 3. Click this link to ask for help with your crash. 4. Created an account. 5. Fill out the fields. (this page)

These are the reports I have submitted since yesterday, November 05, 2016

hi Rhesa, thanks for providing some crash ids. unfortunately these crashes are probably triggered by malware that's present on your system and hooking into firefox (a lsp monitoring your network traffic labelled "chtbrkg.dll"). please go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there (especially anything dubbed "adskip" or other programs you haven't installed intentionally). then please also try running security scans with various other tools like the free version of malwarebytes, adwcleaner & eset online one-time scanner.

finally you may also refer to this blog entry on how to proceed with malicious lsp-modules: https://blog.malwarebytes.com/cybercrime/2014/10/changes-in-the-lsp-stack/
