Adobe flash 11.4 keeps crashing in Firefox--I see fixes for 11. 3 but not for 11.4; HELP!

Every time I open Firefox, I get the popup message that says "Adobe flash player 11.4 r402 has stopped working." It pops up over and over and I have to cancel it just to perform a simple function in Firefox. I'm not even trying to view a video through Flash Player. And if I try to, it doesn't work, anyway. I don't know what to do, but I've basically stopped using Firefox altogether, and that's not what you want. Please help!

First, try to update to Flash 11.5. How to update plugins. Then, if Flash still crashes, follow the directions for Flash 11.3 and see if they stop the 11.5 crashes. Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again

I'll try this. But you say 11.5 crashes--my error message says 11.4, not 11.5.

Sorry I had a typo, I mean update to 11.5, then try again.

OK, thanks. This whole thing is so annoying!
