Firefox refuses to open again after it freezes. This is happening every day and is fast becoming a browser that I will drop and never use again. As a long time user of Firefox I expected a more reliable product from Mozilla. The last 4 releases have been pure junk. I'm using Windows 7 (64Bit) with 32 mg of ram. Never had a problem in the last 10 years using Firefox, but I think the time has come to switch back IE 11 which from all reports is a fast stable browser.

Same problem with FF37 beta. All internet loads stop. When I exit the program the window closes but process continues to run and Task Manager will not stop it. The only solution is to reboot. I have tried safe mode and a full refresh. Neither helps.
