I dont know what you did to it but the latest version 57 of Firefox is terrible. It's performance mimics a virus infected computer. It freezes constantly.

I have now reerted to verion 56 which works fine for me. I am now on the setting to not upload any updates.

If you want people to update make sure the update is not a festering turd before you force [people into it.

And thank you for the directions on how to revert to an older version,
