After updating firefox cannot play flash content always asks to install even when i have.
I updated to firefox 7 last night and this morning i cannot play any flash content, ive installed it many times but it always says i need to install it when ever i play flash. Its not listed in the plugins list and when i click to check if im up to date it says flash is out dated and been disabled, update to the latest version, which i have. Please could you help, Thankyou

Create a New Profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

IF that New Profile works then you can recover your Bookmarks and Passwords from the Old Profile.

there is one other problem maybe you could help me with. ive had it for a quite a while.
The plugin container process always runs at 80-100% cpu all the time any idea how to calm it down?
-> Update All your Firefox Plugins
When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)
-> Restart Firefox
Check and tell if its working.
