 RexterYeeHaw join:2002-11-17 cloud 9 | Firefox freezes on any site that has flash Any time, I go to a site that uses flash, Firefox freezes for 5min or more, then resumes. Most sites use flash, so yea, we are looking at a 5min or more delay when I click on just about anything. I tried removing flash player. Firefox worked fine until I reinstalled Flash player. I tried deleting, reinstalling Firefox, and I even tried deleting my entire Firefox profile. The problem persists. What else might be going on here?

Create a new, clean Profile. Install nothing. Open Addons Manager, disable all Plugins except for Flash.
Visit your site that freeze FF.
Does it freeze? |

Yes, I'm just going to the adobe flash test page, and the msn.com home page. Sometimes I get the flash player crashed message on the adobe page.
youtube just brings up a blank windows where the video should be. -- I'm with the Central Government. I'm here to help you. Now bend over, really, I'm helping you, just, just stay still. You'll feel better in a moment. |

 RexterYeeHaw join:2002-11-17 cloud 9 | No, but this computer has been using flash with Firefox for several years. I did try an update to the graphics driver.
How can I disable hardware acceleration? -- I'm with the Central Government. I'm here to help you. Now bend over, really, I'm helping you, just, just stay still. You'll feel better in a moment. |
