Firefox runs slow and stops for a bit
I find that running flash games such as the ones through Facebook have a lag or the browser freezes up and I have to wait for it to finally go through after sometimes 20-30 seconds. Yet, Chrome and IE9 work without issue moving right through to what I click on.

Also, I have found this to be the same on every computer I use.
Windows 7, Windows 8 Firefox Vers: 17.0.1 Flash: 11.5.502.135
As you can tell, all this is up to date. Its the frames inside the flash window that end up lagging. I used to strictly use Firefox because it didn't have these issues. Now its reversed and I have started to use IE again.
One correction, IE versions I'm using are both 9 and 10.
This sounds like an issue with flash. Have you ensured that Hardware Accerlation in flash is enabled? Right click inside the flash frame > Settings. The "Enable Hardware Acceleration" box should be ticked. If it is already ticked, you could try and untick it and see how the game performs.
Also make sure that you allow the plugin-container process in the firewall.
