Hi All, In Firefox I am having some issues with Flash Player.

Every time I visit the web site the Flash Player either crashes, hangs, lags or freezes.

I have followed Firefox instructions by disabling both the hardware acceleration and Flash Protected Mode. I have also uninstalled then reinstalled Flash Player and downloaded the latest Flash Player version but the problem still persists. I don't know what else to do.

I have a high CPU and have lots of programs running. Do you think this could be related? Anyway, I would like to hear your suggestions on how I can fix Flash Player and prevent it from crashing again. Many Thanks

Separate Security Issue: Update your Adobe Reader Version 2015.016.20039 Note: Other Software is offered in the download.

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
