Adobe Flash constantly crashes

I have uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled, and reinstalled Adobe Flash, yet it constantly crashes. I have reset Mozilla. I have done something about the hardware acceleration (I think that's what it was called. Anyway, I did something with hardware that Mozilla recommended.) But Flash keeps crashing, crashing, crashing. I have also sent a zillion crash reports.

So...how do I stop this from happening?

I understand that Flash is hanging even though you have updated. There was another security release for Flash today as they are addressing some major security issues this week.

I would recommend changing your Flash plugin to a click to play status. Go into about:plugins and click "Always Ask to Activate" for your flash player.

Crashes or other problems with certain multimedia content in Firefox (such as YouTube videos and Flash animations or games) can often be resolved by performing the steps in these Knowledge Base articles:
