Hello,

i updated Firefox to 13.0 and FlashPlayer to 11.3 r300.

Now when i want to look a youtube video etc. not the plugin-container but 2 processes called FlashPlayerPlugin_11_3_300_257.exe handle the flash video (playing music, want to connect to the internet etc.).

Is it normal, that the FlashPlayer is now a standalone process and not anymore isolated in the plugin-container?

Thank you!

yes, this is part of the "protected mode" that adobe has included in the 11.3 flash plugin http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/r.../enduser-release-notes-11_3.html
