I have Firefox 28.0 with Flash Player 13.0.0.182. The Flash Player crashes on every page with Player content rendering the browser unusable, as well. It's very annoying re-opening Ffox dozens times a day, so, I'd be very glad of any assistance. The "mms.cfg" operation (ProtectedMode=0) I've already done with no help at all.

Did you try to disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin and in Firefox?

Thank you for your answer. I followed your instructions concerning Hardware Acceleration, and it seems to work, at least for the time being.
