How can I get Firefox and adobe flashplayer to stop being unresponsive?
I play farmville on facebook. My browser/flashplayer is constantly freezing with the message "Firefox is unresponsive". I'm running windows 7. I have the latest versions of both programs, although the older Firefox seemed to work better, but keeps updating itself. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Some Flash games are having problems starting up in Firefox 40 with a new setting. I'm not sure yours is that issue, but just in case...
Firefox should automatically install a "hotfix" to turn off that new setting, but you can install it manually in case Firefox hasn't done it yet.
