Crashing, Memory Spikes, Utter Slowness
This has been going on for awhile, I've made posts about similar issues but I have yet to hear anything. My Firefox is "broken" I guess that would be the perfect term for, At least my Firefox. I experience slowdowns on all webpages, it crashes, it freezes, I get what seems like an unlimited amount of "Unresponsive scripts" which forces me to use task manager to end the Firefox process because waiting for it to debug itself or letting the script load does nothing at all. Even the great check-able "Do not remind me again box" does nothing, I don't even bother checking the box because if there's another unresponsive script, even though its the same error the notification pops up still.
Firefox's memory usage spikes from 500k-900k all the way to 2million, I have exited Firefox and have also tried to use the task manager to end the process when it spikes because Firefox is unusable when it gets that high. Even though when I completely exit out of the Firefox program and use task manager to end the process, If I start Firefox back up the memory usage will climb back to where it was which is usually around the 1.5mil range then from there it goes to as high as 2.3mil then just crashes on me.
This has been going on for awhile now and nothing seems to be worked on.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
While still in Safe Mode,

On one website the website lags real bad, When I go to type in a message box it takes a minute for it to register then it types, This is not like this on Chrome. The website I'm talking about is Facebook.
Also the problem is still there even in safe mode, I even got the message "Mozilla Firefox Seems Slow to Start" Even though I'm in safe mode.

Alright, Well I'm not going to disable Kaspersky that's my AV program, Unless you mean to disable some of the add-ons that goes with Kaspersky for Firefox.
The file system check turned up that nothing was wrong.
And I have just updated my graphics drivers to the latest using Geforce Experience.
Just to be extra sure I have actually just finished reinstalling my Windows 7 and have just got done updating everything, Firefox, Kaspersky, All drivers that I needed for my computer to work, Nvidia Geforce, I used Ninite to download what I needed.
Among the downloads that I selected for Ninite to download were:
Developer Tools: Python Notepad++ JDK 8 JDK x64 8
Runtimes: Java 8 .NET 4.6.2 Silverlight
Air
Shockwave
I also got Adobe Flash Player.
All of the downloads were for my OS Bit and were the most up to date versions, After that I reinstalled Kaspersky, Which is my Antivirus.
The programs that I'm using from Kaspersky are: Kaspersky Password Manager Kaspersky PURE 2016
I'm also using Malwarebytes Pro Lifetime Edition.
I still have the problem where on Facebook my memory spikes high, Actually since I reinstalled Firefox Facebook seems to go even higher on the memory spikes, Now going to near 3mil in memory. This actually might be a facebook related problem but I'm not totally sure.
As a test, disable Kaspersky. After, restart and disable Malwarebytes.
I thought I replied to this but I guess I didn't. That would explain the lack of email notification I was supposed to get for this thread.
Disabling Kaspersky and Malwarebytes didn't do anything as far as I can tell, My problem still persists.
As said I reinstalled my windows 7, Before I had Kaspersky and Malwarebytes installed I had Firefox installed and the problem still persisted, I still had the "Firefox is slow to start" message and to refresh it, That was something I didn't expect to see, Especially just after reinstalling my Windows 7, The installer I used to install firefox was part of my Ninite bundle of selected programs to download, So everything downloaded was up to date.

I just got this crash:
bp-8f0b5d20-a07e-42a6-ab13-e34a62160911
I'll give the scans a shot, When they complete I will post results on what happened with the scans. I'm going to scan with the Kaspersky Anti Root Scanner, and the Super Anti Spyware Portable scanner.
As for my Kaspersky, Its a paid product, and Since I have reinstalled my windows 7 again, Everything with my Kaspersky is up to date, Also I will not disable my antivirus program.
I have also just removed Mega Sync, Just to be safe.
Alright, My scans were finished last night but I didn't have to time to post.
The Kaspersky scan came back negative as well with the Super Antispyware portable.
My graphics card drivers are up to date as well, I use Nvidia Geforce Experience to keep my drivers up to date.
If it helps or matters at all, My graphics card is an Evga Geforce GTX 760 SC with the ACX 2.0 cooler.
Have you used the other malware scanners?
I've used 3 from the list.
SuperAntispyware Portable Scanner Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Free (Not the free version I have the paid version)
I haven't used:
Microsoft Safety Scanner AdwCleaner
I am about to download and scan using AdwCleaner though, So when it completes I will post the results.
