Firefox crashes
My computer started crashing after I updated my Adobe Shockwave Flash to 15. Any site I'm on that needs a flash player crashes within a few minutes. I changed the Shockwave Flash to ask to activate, so far I have not had any crashes in the last few hours. I have updated Windows, Foxfire, Avast, Windows defender, Malware bytes, and Spybot. I have not tried in safe mode, I'm not sure how to do that. I see Adobe says their flash player is compatable with 2.3GHz. My computer has 2.1GHz. So I assume that is the problem. Is my computer just too old? Name Firefox Version 33.0 User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0
Here is my latest crash: ID: 32a2bb4c-9161-481e-9b67-ebbcd2141021

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
- check for updates for your graphics drive drivers
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration - disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
- disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
