[GTALUG] FF 46 Locking Ubuntu 14.04

[Stephen]

I posted this on the Ubuntu forums. Just got one reply, from someone 
experiencing the same problem. I am hoping someone here can offer some 
advice:

Prior to the latest update (within last week) I was getting FF crashing 
on some web sites. My best guess is that the sites had lots of javascript.

Now, after the update, I am getting FF locking up my desktop. I need to 
do a soft reset to get going again. Very much no fun.

CPU is Intel i5, 64 bit, 16 GB ram CPU temperature app shows good numbers.

I run the Gnome shell.

I use the machine as a LAMP and SAMBA server.

I have never had trouble like this before.

Suggestions and advise requested.

Thanks
