Help? Crashing Flashplayer On Firefox, Chrome...

[swtchbckr]

as i mentioned here

i'm reasonably savi with computers, but this time i'm totally stumped.
basically, if i try to watch anything on youtube, or vimeo..., or vids embedded in sites like Spokemag, anything flash video, everything just freezes, and i have to EndTask the "Plugin Container.exe" and or Firefox to get things moving again. this is on Firefox AND on Chrome browsers, on a windoze7 machine. (vorb vids seem to work tho)

found this security advisory on adobe, but whether thats the same problem or not i dunno...

interestingly, i have found a world of hate for Flash and adobe in general out there in the 'wild' tho. especially from mac users...

computer geekers, please help??? anyone got any ideas?

Upgrade to Snow Leopard :P

But have had this issue on XP Pro - I uninstalled flash and downloaded lastest version. Was a while back (say 3 months), so if you have had a recent update maybe this is the cause or just uninstall and download latest build - can you just system restore? I suppose you have tried all but restore?

ya, pretty much everything except a restore...

de-B U M P

seems to have solved itself... i think cos of a few Windoze updates that crept in...

cos i uninstalled both firefux and flashprayer last night and neither fixed it, but this morning windoze wanted updating, did that, and now the vids all work again. yippeee... got so many on the Interwebby thread to catch up on...
