Recently, i have updated my firefox for android to version 14, that version have html5 and flash support, so, when i go to download a link on 4shared, we need to wait 20 secconds, and de countdown uses flash, i think, and on my firefox mobile, the countdown freezes! The time stop, and i just scrolled up and down the page, and he back to work, when i stop the scrolling back and down, he stop aigan. I think that will be a bug on flash or html5, can fix it?

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:

Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems

Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again

Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox
