Hi everyone,

Hope someone can help with this. I have the latest flash player and latest version of firefox. I am using 64 bit o.s. and the proper versions of firefox and flash for the o.s.

If i uninstall flash, then some multimedia pages do not load, if i install flash i get constant flash crashes. The pages work fine in google chrome. I want to keep using Firefox, but need help.

Thanks

This is not a cure, but should let the web page load without crashing.

Flash block {web link} Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it


If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
