Are there actual viruses out that take advantage of this situation that I should be aware of if I do try this?Īccording to what I have been able to find, there is no 64 bit mode version of Firefox or Google Chrome for Windows, so I am guessing there is no 64 bit mode version of the Adobe Flash player plugin for Windows either. I have not tried disabling protected mode. 64-bitĬhris, following are the last 4 crash report ID's from Firefox. Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 - 7.

So, is this a known issue with Adobe flash player and/or Firefox or has it just never been fixed correctly? However, if I use google chrome and the same ESPN videos that use Adobe flash player so far I have not seen the same issue of hangs or crashes. The pop up box states that Adobe flash player is not responding or in a loop so when I respond to the pop up window to cancel the task all the flash player displays in all of the open Firefox browser sessions crash. Multiple crash reports have been sent to either Adobe or Firefox (I am not sure which one actually gets the crash report) but it appears someone knows about this issue since I seem to be getting more pop up boxes from Firefox now when the Windows 7 system seems to hang (no response from mouse when I try to close the Firefox browser window). This has been occurring for about a year even though Firefox and the adobe flash player have been updated and upgraded many times over the last year. Adobe flash player either hangs up the web browser Firefox or crashes within Firefox.
