I recently updated a flash plugin and now it keeps slowing down followed by a crash and then a report that there was some kind of problem with a "plugin container." What should I do?

I recently updated a flash plugin and now it keeps slowing down followed by a crash and then a report that there was some kind of problem with a "plugin container." I also noticed since that update an adobe acrobat updater of some kind keeps turning up in my taskbar and asking me to update (I think it's for my acrobat reader?) without giving me the option to decline. What should I do?

Maybe there is a problem with OOPP

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

  1. Shockwave Flash 10.0 r42
  2. Java Plug-in 1.6.0_05 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Update the Flash plugin to the latest version.

Update the Java plugin to the latest version.
