Yesterday and today, my computer froze while I was working. Both times, I had to turn it off and back on about 3-4 times, with the loading screen saying, "Preparing Automatic Repair".
What do I do?

Sounds you like might have a virus. Run a virus check and see if that finds anything. I reccommend Malewarebytes Anti-Maleware. If it isn't a virus, maybe your computer is super dirty, try taking the case off and cleaning it with a can of dust-off, make sure your computer is off of course if you do this.
I did a check on everything, and it says everything is working fine.
Maybe I have too many tabs open?

Norton.
I use FireFox as my browser.

Norton isn't really the best anti-virus. You might wanna try the one I mentioned, its one of the best and it might find something Norton hasn't. Have you tried clearing all your browser history/cache as well?

What is your OS? I did some thinking and thought that it may have something to do with your OS, too.

Malwarebytes is best when used as an on-demand virus scanner. For real-time virus protection I recommend BitDefender Free, it's a very good minimalist anti-virus, although a free account is required after 30 days of use. Another decent option is Avast!, but it's a bit more system heavy than I prefer.
