When I play Cityville, I get the GCOD regardless of which browser I use. I have tried playing Cityville with Internet Explorer, Rockmelt, Google Chrome and Firefox, it happens in all of them. This does not happen with other games. I play in Pogo and Shockwave as well but the GCOD never happens there. I have removed the Cityville app and reloaded it, I have uninstalled all those browsers and re-installed them, I have uninstalled my Adobe Flash player and re-installed it, I have even contacted my PC's support center for help to no avail. I have played Cityville in Zynga and in Facebook but either way, I still happens. Can someone help me please?

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles: Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox
