Over the last few days i notice my Firefox browser tabs crashing frequently.
Why would this be?
Never had any issues before.

    Could be any number of reasons.  Maybe it's due to an extension you're running, maybe a particular website has some code that causes the problem with Firefox.  It's also a possibility that some of your RAM has gone faulty.  First things to try would be completely remove firefox, including all settings/config.  Then install it again.  See if the problem occurs when you visit the website.

    My laptop crashed just now, blue screen sanying run into error and have to restart.
    I think may issue with laptop.
    Is there a way to find out why the blue screen happened, any log or something.
    I think it said something on the screen about hardware but i didnt catch it all

    Looks like an issue with an Windows update.

    That's an error from Windows Protection. Are you using any third-party antivirus tools like Norton, they might interfere with System Guard.
