Surprising.
I get around a crash per week on the firefox have my netebook running Linux Mint AND on the firefox I have on my main rig.
I guess it's the addon's fault then. Oh well, the price of power...
Yeah, anytime firefox crashes its almost always a firefox addon. Best way to tell is to run firefox safe mode for awhile.
No crashes? It's an addon.

Once you figure out its an addon, enable 1 addon one at a time for a few days until you crash. The last one you enabled is the problem.
try making sure the addons are always up to date and use this add on , i have loads of extensions and no crashes for the last few years , the odd blip but nothing major or continuous

I used to use Nightly Builds of Firefox and now I have switched to the Firefox 24 Beta 4 and I found that Firefox 23 Beta 1-10 crashed on me at least twice a day. 24 is doing better.
Not surprised,
I never get any crashes,
But of course I use windows and internet explorer friendly utilities,
Java and Flash player have never self updated well and then you get into failing/ or outdated security suites,
Sure is easy to blame a browser for a crash.
Safe mode would point to a funky add-on in any browser if there was no crashing.
I mostly use FF, but I need IE for a few things. Neither crashes
But that Flash plugin! This has to be the buggiest software on the planet.
