Was having problems with Firefox hanging and script errors. Eventually decided it was Adobe Flash that was doing it. Uninstalled Flash, reset Firefox, reinstalled Flash and requested activation on request; worked great. However, by mistake allowed it to be always activated on newspaper website and now it has gone back to hanging and script errors whenever I access the newspaper stops me accessing anything on any tabs. How do I reset the activation to be' activate on request', without having to reset Firefox?

Hope that helps.

Thank you so much for the very swift reply. I have done as you suggested and it would appear to have solved my problem. Wish I knew why Adobe Flash suddenly started to behave like that.
