according to time stamp, I downloaded it on 2/6/2015 at 4:06 AM central time

enter image description here

Is Firefox running in 32-bit or 64-bit mode?

According to the target on my icon, it says

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" so it is 32 bit. I have no control over this, Firefox asks if I want to update and I click yes and it does its thing.

When did you download the CDF Player installer? Two weeks ago a Firefox-compatible CDF Player installer went into the User Portal for downloading.

Is Firefox running in 32-bit or 64-bit mode? The plug-in needs 32-bit. See

Goto: hamburger menu, click question mark, troubleshooting information, click crash reports, click a Report ID and wait until it finds the report (tries to find it every 30 sec).

crash reporter says:

Is there a crash report generated on windows for CDF crash? Can you please show where it is located? or how did you find the CDF crashed? thanks

I can confirm Firefox 36 has a problem with CDF. It seems to finish loading then stops. The crash reporter says: ExceptionAccessViolation_Read and a lot more... In other browsers everything works fine.

I have no problem with FF 35.0.1 and I see the same version number of the CDF plugin. Is the plugin enabled in FF Add-ons Manager-Plugins?

Supposing you are on Windows, have you tried quitting Mathematica through the small icon in the notification area? I think that the plugin doesn't work if there's some Mathematica kernel active (or launched by the Mathematica program or, maybe, left running from some other browser).
