Adobe Flash 10.3.181.34 will crash or cause Firefox to freeze when I try to play videos on my new computer.

I recently purchased a new MSI notebook. It runs Windows 7 64-bit. After I downloaded Firefox 5.0.1, I tried viewing videos on various websites. Firefox recommended that download the appropriate Flash plug-in (10.3.181.34). Now, videos will do either one of two things. 1. The video will play fine as long as I don't try to view in full screen. This causes the browser to freeze up. 2. The video will play the first second and then, if the browser does not freeze, I will get a message saying that Adobe Flash plug-in has crashed.

This was not a problem on my previous notebook, an HP Pavilion running Windows XP.

Okay, there is some video problem, or maybe plug-in compatibility issue. Please try the beta versions of FIREFOX (like Aurora) or try to update your normal stable release of Firefox and also the Adobe Flash plug-ins. Good Luck!
