Chosen solution

That is a problem with Applian software (freecorder).

If you have either of the Applian Technologies programs Freecorder or Replay Media Catcher in combination with Norton/Symantec security software (and possibly some other security software) then this can cause the crashes.

Please at least temporarily uninstall the Freecorder software, and then update Firefox.

Does that solve the problem or at least help. Please post back to say what you did and how you get on.

We are not always certain what causes those particular crashes. The commonest cause is the use of "Freecorder" by "Applian Technologies". You may have to uninstall that. I see FLVSrvLib.dll is present in your report details and that is from Freecorder.

Those crashes have also been associated with software from Kaspersky & Norton & again I see IPSEng32.dll indicating you use Norton software. (You probably also have software from Trusteer Rapport as I see RapportGP.dll & RapportUtil.dll Trusteer software is mentioned in the Firefox Release notes for Fx44 & Fx45 as being known to cause issues)
