When you select a gift in farmville, the select friends screen appears, but they are no neighbors, nor can any be entered. Unique to 4.01, version 3.6.* was ok. It is like FF is not properly handling the adobe flash content process. There is a skip box you can check to cancel. but version 4 simply displays the facebook box and version 3.6.* would take you back to the farmville game. This has happened to 2 different PCs, one vista, one windows 7. Had to return to 3.6.* Google Chrome and IE8 ok.

I too have this problem, but if you use the free gifts I can eventually force it to work at times by clicking the tab of type of friends to list like for farmville on Facebook. even though Firefox loads the games faster then IE8/IE9 like always. only in firefox 4 do the games not fully load, And yet firefox wants everyone to upgrade to FF 4, But seeing these problems with 80%+ free flash game sites I see the majority going to competitors browsers or downgrading to 3.6 line or before unless this gets fixed. I include a screenshot of the loading problem, the in-game farmville flash game rewards people to give friends gifts for playing. but in firefox 4 you can select friends to send to but no cancel or send request button load up.
