Flash is crashing both Firefox 2 & IE7

My system, Windows XP SP3, IE 7, Firefox 2.0 , Flash Player
9.0.124.0. After a recent Windows update which included SP3 I had
to install Flash Player latest version for IE7. The normal Flash
download and install wouldn't work. It caused IE7 to crash
repeatedly. Followed Adobe's online recommendations - uninstall and
redownload didn't work. Downgrading IE7 security to medium didn't
work. The Adobe Flash uninstall tool didn't work. Their final
online solution (which required several steps) regarding Windows
registry permissions was successful for IE7in my case: from the
Adobe technote -
"Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues
that prevent the Flash Player installation. For instruction on how
to run SubInACL to fix these permission issues please refer to
"Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that
prevent the Flash Player installation" (TechNote fb1634cb)."
Update - Now 6 days later and IE7 crashes have returned. No
major system changes or updates in that time. The IE7 crashes are
most noticeable on Yahoo sites ( Yahoo!mail for instance) when
Flash ads try to load... Created a new Firefox profile and that
seems to have fixed the Firefox crashes, but wait and see...

Same thing happens with Chrome. So all three different browsers - same problem with flash.
Was trying to watch a 4 hour long live stream of a game tonight - and needless to say, having to deal with a crash and have page file skyrocket every 5 minutes was not fun.

Latest Flash version crashing both Firefox and IE

Hello.
Been using Flash in both IE and Firefox for years with no major problems until the last update a little over a week ago. Now, whenever I am watching video for more than about 5 minutes, the process for either browser's memory grows steadily way way up from where it normally is - and where it started (and where it used to stay) - and eventually crashes the player, the browser and freezes the entire computer. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing Flash and it hasn't helped. I stopped using Explorer a long time ago and switched to Firefox but went back and checked to see if it would be any different using that browser -figuring it might just be a Firefox issue, but the same thing happens. So I just downloaded Chrome and will try and see what happens with that - but am very troubled, since this has caused me great unhappiness and stress over the last week.
So the problems seem to be with 15.0.0.152 / 167
Any suggestions? Is this a known issue? Thanks.
Windows XP - all up to date. No other issues. System is fine. Have run all sorts of system checks and malware scans and it shows up clean.
Thanks again.

Flash Player crashing in Firefox

System is:
MacBook Pro
OS X 10.10.2 (14C1514)
Firefox 37.0.1
Flash Player 17.0.0.134
Any web site with flash video causes the beach ball spinner, firefox freezes, flash then crashes and firefox unfreezes. This has been happening through different versions of ff and fp. I have turned off hardware acceleration and flash protected mode - no change. When will this be fixed? As is, Flash Player is useless, I have disabled it.
Ron Halstead

ProtectedMode is a Windows-only feature, so that doesn't change anything. If it's happening in software mode, then it's not related to the GPU (Mac configs are pretty constrained, so that's not typically the deal anyway).
You might want to run Disk First Aid and repair both the filesystem and filesystem permissions (sometimes verify filesystem permissions will return clean, then repair will fix a bunch of issues).
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203176
Caveat: Sometimes corrupted software is an early indicator that your disk is going bad. It's wise to ensure that you have current working backups, especially if you have anything important on the machine. Checking the disk for problems is a relatively safe operation, but will also give the disk a workout. If it's on it's way out, you may not get a lot of additional warning.
At that point, go ahead and blow away all of Flash Player's data files by going to:
Control Panel > Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
If you're *still* having problems, let's try a clean install:

Adobe Flash Player crashes on Firefox (NetSteam, Stratus)

Flash Player version: 11,8,800,97 (last)
OS: Windows 7
Browser: Mozilla Firefox 22.0 (last)
Problem: Adobe Flash Player crashes on Firefox, when runnig project with such elements like NetSteam, Stratus.
When problem happen: Only when some streamed data is incoming, after random time. Time before crash can be 4 minutes, it also can be 2 minutes. Memory leaks or disk space usage didn't change and don't seem to be a reason. Problem happen when I was testing my voice chat together with few people. At one moment it crashed at few computers at the same time (which were using Firefox). Then we had luck with repeating this problem several times - simply by asking one of us to play any music into Microphone. Then Firefox Flash Player always crashing.
Here you can see repeating of problem: http://youtu.be/BdkoQxloyDA
It also show that it does not crashes if nobody is sending audio stream in created group, but it does when somebody is sending audio stream. In that video I'm repeating problem by myself, with help of one computer and 2 tabs of Flash Player. First is running in Chrome, second in Firefox. Player in Chrome is used to send system sound from speakers to peer group. Player in Firefox is listening and playing everything he hears (this is why I set it's volume to near 1).
Here is .swf :
http://www.plazmaburst2.com/vchat/vchat.swf?1375377116&l=ANY_LOGIN_NAME&g=b1a2e6f17f339b63 6382b2d6cccadb21
It's very simplified voice chat which only displays streams which are being heared. It's adding " is talking" when stream is sending data. "g" parameter is a group name, I think you can choose any, but tests were made with this one.
Hope it helps. If you will need .fla file - just tell me.

Your issue is distinct from the original poster's issue about a crash on Mac. I've branched this out to a new thread so that we're not confusing everyone.
Firefox on Win8 isn't very stable. We're collaborating with Mozilla on improvements, and my test results with the daily development builds are really promising, but it will be a few more weeks before they actually make it to production releases.
In the meantime, you're way better off using IE or Chrome.

Trying to find out which line of AS2 code is causing flash player crash in firefox & chrome browser

Hello,
I have a flash movie (AS2) created for the website visitors' registration and this flash movie is longer in size than the browser's window height so that site visitors need to browse down using browser's vertical scroll bar to see all of the contents in the flash movie.
When users click the submit button in the flash movie then
Firstly, the AS2 code attached to the      on(release){    event scrolls the html page back to the top (because the user must have scrolled down to view the flash movie content at the bottom of the page and I want the html page to go back to the top of the page)
getURL("javascript:window.scroll(0,0)");    // this is the AS2 code I have used for scrolling the page back to the top. I suspect this code is causing the flash player crash in firefox and google chrome
and also tells the _root of the flash movie to go to and stop at a frame named "StartEnteringData".
_root.gotoAndStop("StartEnteringData")     //making the _root of the movie to go to the "StartEnteringData" frame
this.gotoAndStop("Start")                                  //making this movieclip which contains the registation form to go to the first blank frame labelled "Start"
The "StartEnteringData" frame on the _root of the flash movie has AS2 code for entering the registration data to the database by using loadVariablesNum( ... )
Here's my question.
Almost everytime the user/visitor click the Submit button, the firefox browser users and google chrome browswer users see the Flash Player CRASH...
This doesn't happen often with the website visitors using MS Internet Explorer.
I have read some www articles (by searching google) saying that Adobe Flash Player in Firefox and Chrome browsers crash a lot.
But, for my flash movie, everytime the visitor clicks the submit button, flash player crashes. Therefore, I guess it is the AS2 code that I'm using (associated with the on(release) event of the submit button) is causing the flash player crash rather then the flash player compatibility with Firefox and Chrome browsers.
So, someone please tell me what's causing the flash player crash.
Is there a better code to make a web page to go back to the top?
I am also using the codes shown below on the first keyframe of the main movie. (_root)
//For custom flash right click menu:
var myMenu_cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.zoom = true;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.quality = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.print = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.save = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.loop = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.rewind = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.play = false;
myMenu_cm.builtInItems.forward_back = false;
_root.menu = myMenu_cm;
//For tiling the flash movie background with bitmap picture
import flash.display.BitmapData;
var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("pattern");
this.beginBitmapFill(tile);
this.lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
this.lineTo(Stage.width, Stage.height);
this.lineTo(0, Stage.height);
this.lineTo(0, 0);
this.endFill();

by repeatedly commenting out lines of code you suspect are causing the crush and retesting you should be able to pinpoint the problem.

Flash player Crashing in Firefox 6 Beta

the Adobe Flash player is regularly crashing in Firefox 6 beta I have the latest version updated, so whats the problem?

Yeah, I've been having this issue too. It wouldn't be such a bother if all it was was a simple refresh away, but with that god damn poorly coded plugin container in tow it causes my computer to drag it's feet so bad that it nearly crashes the whole damn thing. I'll give them a little time to fix it, but Chrome is looking nicer and nicer all the time.

Flash Player crashes on Firefox and Windows 8

I too have this problem and it occurred after Firefox's recent update.
The Flash Player crashes any time I open a website with embedded Flash videos.
I cannot watch anything that requires Flash Player and when on Facebook, the pages continually crash. I send a crash report each time then reload and it crashes again. I send about 20 reports per hour and am sick of it and have started using another browser where I do not have this problem but my preferred browser is Firefox.
I have Firefox 35.0.1 which is the latest version.
My operating system is Windows 8
The plugin I have for Flash Player is Firefox, Mozilla - NPAPI 16.0.0.296 however when I check with Flash Player, it tells me the version I have is 16.0.0.235.
When I try to upgrade, I am informed that my version is up to date.
Steps taken
- updated Flash Player
- Cleared caches
- Unchecked hardware acceleration in Firefox.
I cannot find the menu for Flash Player as I'd like to try to disable hardware accelerator there too.
HELP please.

Flash player crashes in firefox but not in waterfox ??

i have tried the downgrade to ver 10 of flash. no problem in firefox but now my other programs that use flash will not run. error messages say that i am not up to the correct version. i uploaded waterfox and have had no problems using the latest flash. can you take the waterfox program segments and move them to firefox?
mark

You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Project created in Flash CS3 & Flash CS5 crashes both Safari & Firefox

I have a user with a brand new image including Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and the Adobe CS5. When creating a project in Flash CS5 and then trying to view it in Safari & Firefox the plug-in crashes which then brings down the browser with it. I went and installed Flash CS3 (as this is what he is used to using) and the problem still persists.
Any ideas?

anyone?

Adobe Flash Plugin Crash in Firefox and IE

About a week ago my firefox and internet explorer browsers haven't been able to play any flash movies. For example, I go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flash.html and click play on the main video section that pops up and the adobe flash plugin has crashed screen appears.
I also uninstalled and reinstalled flash to the newest version and back to version 10.3 as well and both of these things did not fix the problem.
Please let me know if you need any other info to help fix the problem. I appreciate the help!

Flash Player crashes in Firefox immediately

The Message goes as follows:
Adobe Flash Player 11.6 r602 has stopped working
A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program.
This message appears over and over until the page is closed. Also, sometimes the "plugin container" crashes too.
Attempts at Fixing It:
I've tried disabling the plugins.
I've tried disabling the hardware acceleration thing.
I've tried updating adobe to the latest version.

Re: How to roll back to a previous version
From the link I provided:
Step 1: Uninstall Flash
To uninstall Flash on Windows, you will need to use the uninstaller provided by Adobe.
Download the uninstaller program from Adobe - uninstall_flash_player.exe (676 KB)
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Exit
Run the uninstall Flash program that you download and follow the prompts.
When you are finished, start Firefox again and continue with the next section.
See the Adobe help article Uninstalling Flash Player on Windows for more details.
Step 2: Install Flash 10.3
The following instructions will show you how to download and install Flash 10.3.
Download Flash 10.3 from the Adobe site - install_flash_player_10_plugin.exe (3 MB)
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Exit
Open your downloads folder and double-click the file named install_flash_player_10_plugin.exe to start the installation.
Follow the instructions in the installer. When the installation is complete you can open Firefox again.

Why Does Shockwave Flash Keeps Crashing In Firefox?

I've been using adobe shockwave flash player with no problem for the last six years. Recently I brought a new computer, windows vista and downloaded the adobe reader and shockwave player.
Everytime I go to watch a video on the internet flash player would crash and a message would pop up saying, "Adobe Flash Player 11.5r502 Has Stopped Working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
I'm using the latest release shockwave 11.5.502.149 and my computer doesn't have any malware or viruses on it.
I would appreciate it greatly if someone could help me with this problem as it means I can't watch any videos at all and because the flash player shuts down everytime I go on adobe.com or youtube, I'm force to disable the program just to stop the constant error messages from popping up.
Really would appreciate any help or advice on how to fix this problem.
I using firefox 19 if that helps.
Does anyone know what data execution prevention is? It keeps popping up after I close adobe.

Bug or Feature? Different behavior after 1.6.0_02 in both Firefox & IE6/IE7

Greetings,
I have been testing a small java applet for a phpbb mod, named Proxy Revealer
Basically the java applet "phones home" (connects back to the http host serving the applet) via a Socket connection to establish a direct connection, then basically writes a custom HttpRequest string with some parameters passed to it from the php script's HTML, so it looks like:
GET /probe.php?mode=java&ip=initial_external_ip&extra=random_unique_identifier&local=LAN_IP&vendor=java_vendor&version=num&user_agent=browser
which would allow the php script on the host/site to verify the client's IP address, and compare it with the initial IP that requested the page which loaded the applet, as well as Internal LAN IP if user is behind a router/NAT
This allows the php script to unmask & log proxied users for security purposes, in case of spamming/trolling on the forum, in an attempt to thwart the average spammers/trollers at the least.
The applet and the code works as desired and in various browsers, but only on JRE 1.6.0_02 and earlier releases...
It seems ever since JRE 1.6.0_03, this has stopped working when the end-user has HTTP Proxy configured in the browser.
I tested latest JRE as of date, ver 1.6.0_07, with IE6, IE7 & Firefox 2.0.0.15 and 2.0.0.16 and it still exhibits this odd behavior.
This is what appears in Java Console when I try to visit the page serving this applet with an HTTP proxy configured in browser:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80 connect,resolve)
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the resolved IP of the server host that is hosting the applet, so basically the same origin....
If I disable the HTTP Proxy configured in the browser, the applet connects back fine. So it only happens when HTTP Proxy is configured in browser..
Is this a new feature or a bug??

Thought I might elaborate on the details of the bug report I made, perhaps someone needs to add to it or needs to understand the problem better.
Description:
Unsigned applets cannot connect back via Socket to the originating host (from codebase) when a Proxy is configured in user's browser (IE7/IE6//FF3/FF2 tested) and when origin host's IP address doesn't resolve back to the same hostname.
Example:
www.hostingsite.com resolves to 1.2.3.4
but, 1.2.3.4 resolves back to 4.3.2.1-somewebhost.com
Affects JRE versions 1.6.0_03 - 1.6.0_07
This wasn't a problem in 1.6.0_02 or prior versions according to my tests.
An AccessControlException is thrown about SocketPermission:
I believe the security manager is doing unnecessary lookups, even after the resolved IP matches to the IP of the origin host. This is apparent from the fairly long delay before the ACE is thrown about SocketPermission.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure HTTP Proxy in browser (IE/Firefox)
2. visit an html page that embeds a simple applet that tries to connect back to origin host whose hostname resolves to an IP address but the IP address resolves to a different hostname. (example code below)
Expected Result:
Applet should be able to connect back to originating host via Socket connection or write (post) to a URL on origin host (which requires a new Socket connection back)
Actual Result:
Socket sock = new Socket(Proxy.NO_PROXY);
InetSocketAddress sockAddress = new InetSocketAddress(getCodeBase().getHost(), port);
sock.connect(sockAddress);The above snippet of code would throw an ACE about SocketPermission when applet tries to initiate sock.connect
Moreover,
URL urlRequest = new URL(this.getCodeBase()+path);
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection)urlRequest.openConnection(Proxy.NO_PROXY);
conn.getOutputStream();would also throw an ACE about SocketPermission when the applet tries to initiate Socket connection for the conn.getOutputStream() call.

               String path = getParameter("path")+"&local="+sock.getLocalAddress().getHostAddress();
               String httpRequest = "GET "+path+" HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: "+getCodeBase().getHost()+"\r\n\r\n";
               sock.getOutputStream().write(httpRequest.getBytes());
               sock.getInputStream();
          catch (Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
Workaround:
The only possible workaround I could find is if the the applet can be loaded from IP-address in the codebase URL to avoid the unnecessary lookups by the SecurityManger.
This, however, maybe very difficult to use in most virtual-hosting environment, and IE browsers older than IE7 would most likely throw an error like "Class not found".
Example, if www.hostingsite.com resolves to 1.2.3.4
and http://1.2.3.4 goes to http://www.hostingsite.com
Change the codebase URL in the html embedding the applet, from:
"http://www.hostingsite.com/classes"
to:
"http://1.2.3.4/classes"
I also forgot to mention in my bug report that this would also be quite a big problem in server farms, where the origin-hostname resolves to multiple IP addressses and when those IP addresses do not all resolve back to the same hostname.

Flash Player crashes IE9, Firefox and Chrome

The latest version of Flash Player 11.4.402.287 is causing my browsers (IE9, Firefox and Chrome) to crash when I'm on Pixorial. I've contacted Pixorial customer service but they say it's a Flash Player problem.
I'm running the following:
Windows 7 Professional
Chrome 22.2.1229.94 m
IE9 9.0.8112.16421IC
I have updated the display adapter driver (I read somewhere that might help) but no change. I am having the same problem on my laptop at home which is using the exact same versions I have typed above, except it uses Windows XP.
Any help is sincerely appreciated. I'm at the end of my rope and I don't know how to fix this.

I got reply and they said it's not necessarily a Flash Player problem. The app need to load heavy resource to run so it might be causing performance issue under your HW/SW configration. Have your machine with same setting worked fine before and suddenly started the issue after installing Flash 11.4.402.287?

Latest FLASH plugin crashes both Mac and PC with NO customizations or hardware acceleration

Never had a problem before until I updated my flash plugin a few weeks ago.
FLASH will shut off a vulnerable plugin, so the only way you can access content is to update.
There are NO customizations and NO hardward acceleration on either Mac 10.6.8 or PC Windows 8.1
BOTH computers are crashing.
I've sent about 10 reports alone today!
I've cleared my cache, reset my permission, and all is well.
