Every time I click on a link for a Netflix instant-play movie, the browser instantly closes all windows and tabs (quits, in fact) with no explanation. The rest of the processes on the computer are not noticeably disturbed. I use Firefox version 3.6.3 on a MacBook running Mac OS X version 10.4.11, and 1 GB of RAM is available; all of these parameters meet the system requirements listed on Netflix's website. Furthermore, my Microsoft Silverlight is fully updated. Any advice?

I have had the same issue for a couple of weeks. Safari and Firefox close when trying to play instantly. Firefox 3.6.16, Mac OSX 10.4.11, intel processor, 2GB memory. Updating to the latest version of Silverlight and a restart took care of the issue.

Offersoul, you are a godsend! I had the same problem with firefox 3.6.19. I called Netflix, firefox, apple, and no one seemed to have an answer for me, but after digging around on here I finally found someone with an answer. You rock!
