Hey, i have two problems the last month. First the flash player keeps crashing or it says that its busy, pretty much every time im trying to open a page with a flash content . Also im getting another message that its says the plugin conteiner has stopped working. Ive already disable the hardware acceleration and all the plugins are up to date. Any solutions?

Maybe a reinstall or changing it to ask to activate flash from the about:addons page.

Sorry to be short, I am happy to elaborate. (Its Friday)

Did you try to disable protected mode in the Flash plugin as well?

See also:

You can uninstall the current Flash player version and (re)install the latest Flash version.

Note that this will remove all installed Flash players.

You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page:

Also make sure to allow the plugin-container process in your security software (firewall).

Thanks for your response! Ive already done all this but the problem still exists. The only think that i have not try is to disable the protection mode in the flash plugin because i think this will repeal the security benefits. am i wrong? Thnx again
