Bug Description
In safe mode all the add-ons are disabled, however i do not know how to disable single add-ons, in time before the system freezes, so it's either all on or all off.
There shold be an additional feature to select which add-ons can be disabled before starting the browser. It must be one of these, since i prior to the problem when i had not so many, then i installed a number of them.
The browser is all still quite visible after the crash, though dull, and totoally lifeless/
Other browsers were working fine.
