Adobe Flash keeps causing Firefox to freeze
It will work for a short while but eventually causes firefox to completely freeze until I end the "plugin-container.exe" process in the task manager (which causes it to stop working obviously). I have uninstalled and reinstalled, I have attempted the deactivate hardware acceleration option, the option under plugins that firefox also suggested isn't even an option anymore (maybe it was for an older version of flash?) but either way this is getting old since practically every website uses flash either for ads or actual desired video and I'd like to be able to browse the web. Any help would be much appreciated!

hi, there are currently various known issues with the flash sandbox in win64bit builds causing those hangs. these are being worked on - at the moment you'd have the option to switch to a 32bit build of firefox or to disable the sandbox by setting dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox-level.flash to 0 in about:config.
