I see reports on 31.x ESR on Mac as well. When I look at the install time column, I also see there are many reports coming from the same installation, so a handful of people are experiencing this problem frequently.

There's only one comment in the reports and it mentions youtube.com. 

One thing that might be interesting to note is that reports on Linux for 42.0a1 and 41.0a2 started on 7/13. A couple of add-on that appears in the list of correlations are related to video download helpers, but other than that I don't see much to go by.

[Benjamin Smedberg]

Resolving old bugs which are likely not relevant any more, since NPAPI plugins are deprecated.
