Q: Safari and Firefox crash on OS X 10.10.5 when uploading/downloading files

Firefox 40.0.3 and Safari 8.0.8 (10600.8.9) on Macbook Air 2012 running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

 

Firefox and Safari crash every time I attempt to add an attachment to an email in Gmail's web interface. I can view a Gmail attachment, but if I attempt to download it, the browser crashes. Crash also occurs when I try to download any file from a website (I just tried to update one of my Firefox addons (Silverlight). This suddenly started happening yesterday. I can't think of anything that has changed and could be causing this behavior.

MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
