When opening Google Maps Firefox crashes. I tried switching to safe mode to disable all the add-ons but it's still happening.

Hi TealViolence

The first crash is a problem with the Shockwave Flash plugin

  • bp-7d6ab844-0d26-4bb3-87de-74b4d2140312

The other three crashes are a problem with your Norton security software as you can see by the various Norton (Symantec) DLLs (symhtml.dll coUICtlr.dll) that are part of the crashing thread.

  • bp-97e61793-e50e-4835-8ba1-358b62140227

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
  • disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Hi J_Barish

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

It is disabled and still crashing.

Crash report to go with it: bp-53167638-dc42-4ac7-9281-52d702140321

Maps doesn't crash chrome, but I prefer firefox's security settings.
