See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins

You can set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to to -1 on the about:config page to disable the timeout. dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs -> -1 (disable) http://benjamin.smedbergs.us/blog/tag/hang/

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Plugins/Out_of_process_plugins/The_plugin_hang_detector

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

@cor-el

This doesn't solve the problem. What you are suggesting stops firefox from killing the plug-in when you are debugging a flash file and you are at a breakpoint for too long. I have this set to -1 already and am still seeing the hang. What happens is that the flash error dialog pops up, but the buttons are unresponsive and the whole browser hangs. You have to go to the windows task manager and kill the plugin container to continue.

Anyone else have any suggestions?

BTW, one solution is to go to an older version of Firefox (I believe my coworker mentioned 3.5.x doesn't hang, but I don't remember the exact version).
