Firefox freezes, crashes, "plugin container" crashes, screen turns black in areas
Ever since we got a new hard drive Firefox is not working well at all. The screen will turn black in places sometimes, sometimes I can't see pictures, and it freezes a lot. It will become not-responding and then inform me that the plugin container has crashed. I also get have issues with scripts not completing.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
- see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers
