firefox crashes when loading .fr site

Firefox now crashes each time I try to load a new tab and a site in that tab. This has only happened since the last auto update. I have tried removing the firefox folder in my library, so a clean version of firefox loads, but if i try to go to the address from before, it crashes. Not all sites cause a crash, but many of my bookmarked sites do.

Can you post a link?

Looks like a problem with a font. Does it work if you disable the website fonts loading that page? Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced > "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

It isn't just a font thing with me because I have my fonts set to allow pages to use their own fonts. I have the same problems but with additions, It seems mine wont ever remember the last page it was on when i start a new page and it crashes for no reason while running. What I want is to go back before the last update. It ran fine then. Is it possible to roll back Mozilla? I'll be asking in a new thread. I just wanted to let you all know it isn't necessarily just a font thing causing this .

Then you have a different problem.

The OP posted the ID of a crash report that indicated a problem with the Apple Type Services (ATS) and such errors are likely caused by a font issue.
