Going back to 10.3 seems to have solved it. Many thanks. I gather Adobe are updating to 11.7 from July 17 2013 so maybe this will resolve it.

hello, it might be an issue with the protected mode that adobe has introduced for its flash plugin for firefox. please make sure that the security software on your system isn't blocking/sandboxing the communication between firefox.exe, plugin-container.exe and the process for the flash plugin itself).

as a workaround you could try downgrading to flash 10.3 or disabling protected mode & see if this makes a difference.

in case you'd like to troubleshoot the issue further, it would be best to contact adobe's support & file a bug report at bugbase.adobe.com (choose "Adobe Flash Player" as the product & "Browser Integration" as the product area), since they will have a better understanding of the internals of flash protected mode & therefore may know what else might be at the root of the problem you were seeing.
