I have to reboot and start over or wait for the blue screen of death to come up. My CPU runs at 100% when this happens to me. It happen all the time.

Hello mnrwronl, try to upgrade your graphics drivers to latest, also, turn off hardware acceleration, and disable hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See this article for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).

To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:

  1. Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
  2. Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
  3. Click on Settings in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
  4. Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.

    The image "fpSettings1.PNG" does not exist.
  5. Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
  6. Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
  7. Restart Firefox.

This Flash Player Help - Display Settings page has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.

Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

thank you

So far it seems to have solved my problems i was having. Have my fingers crossed so it doesn't start up again. Had to do all three suggestions. Thank you for your help.
