Shockwave crashes version 20.0.0.306 Firefox version 44.0.2
I updated to Firefox 44.0.2, I keep crashing and a box pops up to send crash report. Also says my shockwave plugin stopped responding, I have version 20.0.0.306. The articles refer to a lower version of Firefox, not 44.0.2. The problem keeps happening on Facebook, as of this morning I went to read an article of the news and the same thing happened. Only this time even the send crash report froze. I have Windows VISTA.

That are hangs in the Shockwave Flash plugin.
