I am absolutely sick and tired of hearing excuses about why FF is not to be blamed when it chews 100% CPU with the Adobe Flash plugin. I have done all the dancing around I am willing to endure. I have even downgraded to FF18 and FF19. No friggin setting works. Nothing. IT IS IN THE CODE!! FIX IT!!! It is simply NOT acceptable that ANY other browser in the known universe works OK with Flash BUT FF. It is time that devs acknowledge this and do something about it instead of scratching their butts! PLEASE do not get me more links to troubleshooting pages, either from Windows, Adobe or FF. I'll repeat: IT IS IN THE FRIGGIN CODE. FIX IT!!!

The last item is about protected mode. You might have to turn it off.

Also IE uses a Active version of Flash and Chrome comes with its own Flash though it can use Adobe version if pepper version is disabled.

Adobe has been making a buggy Plugin for Windows ever since they came out with the Flash 11.3 version.
