With flash enabled, any site using flash starts loading but doesn't finish. Firefox hangs with the hour glass. I have to kill the process using win task manager. The New York Times site will crash Firefox if I have flash enabled. I have all current windows updates. If I use Internet Explorer, Flash works.

Hi,

I suggest you to fully uninstall Flash Player, and install it thereafter.

Kind regards, Joren

I tried fully uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling both firefox and flash. Ultimately, firefox beta 4 works with flash, although I miss all my add-ons.
