Shockwave plugin pop-up to continue or stop. I select stop and eventually the entire website closes.

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

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
