Firefox won't load homepage when launched and crashes when closed.
Last night, while I was in Firefox, a notification popped up that updater.exe had been downloaded. I could easily take a guess: a new version of Firefox was out. I closed Firefox and then had the updater do its thing.
When Firefox then launched & came up with a blank screen (like what you would see with New Tab), I was a little confused. I checked Tools > Options and the general tab was still set to show the homepage when Firefox starts up (Xfinity). I also went through all the other tabs and found that nothing had been changed. It was 18.0, as shown in "About Firefox" so I was scratching my head as to what was going on. Humoring myself, I clicked the "home" Icon, and sure enough it toop me to my homepage. Figuring I'd take a shot at it later, I closed Firefox (The red X in the upper right).
Then things took a stranger turn. Upon closing, the Mozilla Crash Report screen popped up. I figured this was a one-time thing, so I didn't send a report. I launched Firefox again, and again I got a blank screen. Upon closing, the Crash Report screen popped up again. To ensure this was just something with Firefox, I launched Internet Explorer. It showed the homepage upon launch, and didn't crash when closed.
Now, upon getting the troubleshoot information, I discovered another twist: When I go to close one of the tabs, Forefox crashes.
This has me scratching my head. Before I updated, everything was perfectly fine. Now I run into this. Any thoughts?

Can you type about:crashes in Firefox and give me the crash report? (it starts with bp-).
Also, can you Reset Firefox? Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
Alright, I just tried to reset (help > Troubleshooting > click 'Reset Firefox'. It said it would try to hold onto bookmarks, passwords, etc). When it closes, we hit the Crash Report screen again. Launching Firefox reveals nothing has changed (Theme being the same is the give-away). I'd say that hasn't worked as of yet.
I typed about:crashes and copy/pasted everything in the "details" tab. If the "Raw Dump" tab would be more effective, just say so and I'll add that
