Hi Guys, As of last week, Firefox is crashing on the Flash Player when gaming. When I go through IE the Flash Player seems fine. I upgrade to latest Forefox Vers 28 (64 Bit), Flash Player is up to date as well.

Any ideas what gives?
 
Also, Firefox uses a Shockwave flash plugin/add-on. Click on the Firefox menu->Add-ons->Plugins and then click the "Check to see if your plugins are up to date link" at the top of the page.
 
Mine did it once after updating Firefox to 28.0. I did a flash update from Adobe website and that seem to have sorted it out.

Sadly though I have noticed that Firefox is becoming more of a donkey as it matures.Problem for me is that I prefer Firefox above
IE and Chrome.
 
Mines been crashing a few times everyday for the last 2 years. I simply gave up.

Happened to me on Windows 7 64bit + Firefox 32 bit as well as Windows 8 64 bit + Firefox 32 bit. Have not tried the 64 bit version of Firefox, as I believe some extensions and plugins won't work at all.

Flash is gone to sh*t. I can't wait for it to die off completely, and HTML5 to take over.
 
i am having the same problem. have cleared the cache and reinstalled adobe flash, but neither has fixed the problem.
