Hello! I have real trouble with flash. Flash is crashing Mozilla, but working fine in Explorer. I downgraded, as suggested here, and it used to solve the problem for a while. Now it wont anymore. The downgraded flash wont start, it shows a message "click here to activate the plugin" where the flash is supposed to appear and dies. What is interesting is that at first, after installing a new version of flash it works fine. The troubles start 2-3 days later - first it starts crashing my video driver, even sometimes restarting the computer.

However same flash is working fine in Explorer. Why?

Oh yes, as I said downgrading does not work anymore. This is what I get:

And when I click on "activate plugin" nothing happens.

What happens if you activate the Flash plugin via that button or via a possible button on the location bar (left end)?

Did you try to disable hardware acceleration in the Flash player?

Nothing happens when I click on the button. Yes, I tried to disable the hardware acceleration while it was working. It kept crashing, but, only when I play on full screen.
