I get the "firefox has stopped working" message after closing browser
Hello.
My problem is that when I close the FireFox browser I get the "FireFox has stopped working" message. It's pretty annoying. I've read some other posts here that described a similar problem and have tried some of the suggestions in them including:
A clean install, a browser reset, running in safe mode, unchecking hardware acceleration, disabling extentions and plugins one at a time, uninstalling my antivirus (avast), rolling back to version 23.01 and checking run in compatibility mode that someone claimed helped them. None of this was effective.
It seems like after a computer restart the browser will be ok for 2-4 closings and then it will start with the message on every closing. Also, after I uninstalled avast it was good for 6 closings. Rolling back also gave me about 6 message free closings. But then the messages start and doesn't stop.
Is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Those are problems with the Flash plugin.
You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
- disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
- disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
- disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Ok, I added the code to the mms file in the flash folder to disable protected mode and it seems to have fixed the issue.
Thank you very much!!

All I can add is what worked for me.
I disabled ALL to do with Java, plug-in and program.
Also, I initially thought the problem was connected to Flash so I followed this advice from another forum:
ABP>Options>uncheck 'show tabs on Flash and Java'
I don't know which has worked but I am now free of that annoying message.
