firefox + Flashplayer = BSOD and XP reboot
Was running 3.5.11 and .12 and recently, flashplayer will play videos for a minute or so, then freeze, with an audio 'stammering' sound, and suddenly a BSOD breifly flashes on screen and the PC (a Gigabyte EP45 build) reboots! This has happened consistenly now, even after upgrading to FF 3.6.9.
IE7 works fine, but it's Flash plug-in is 10.0, where FF is using flash 10.1 (current vers). I suspect maybe there is a bug with the current flash player? Failing all else, how can i downgrade the flash plugin back to vers. 10.0?

Make sure that your firewall (security software) isn't restricting the Flash plugin.

I am not sure how it would restrict it, as it does play fine, up to a point. I have the same setup at work (Mcafee, XP, FF3.5.12) and it works fine.
