After a new LL install you should run updates even if you installed via the upgrade path. If they fail run sudo apt-get update first. This is NOT an LL issue. I have Ubuntu 16.04 on the 4.4.x kernel on an AMD CPU box and have had continuing problems with firefox for the last two weeks and yet.,.. when I run LL 3.8 virtually in qemu on the same box and base system LLs firefox has no problems at all. Most of the Ubuntu problems have to do with residual firefox addons that no longer run but have left file scraps and broken bin dependencies on the system. This is a firefox cleanup issue and it continues on Ubuntu 16.04 on the 4.4.x kernel series. I have not had a crash on any Intel boxes which makes me suspect it's linked to firefox arch specific Spectre mitigations.
