So I'm thinking of again trying Chrome or one of it's cousins.

I tried Chrome and liked it but I kept getting the "shockwave flash plugin causes a crash" pop up box. I looked on the net to find a solution but none have seemed to work.

On Dragon, however, I didn't have that problem when I went to the same site i was on when it happened on Chrome.

Any suggestions on fixing that problem?

 

I'm not at all knowledgeable on Flash but a few points ... always mention the exact version number of the browser, the command line, the OS and, if it's not a violation of "privacy", the site(s) involved. Basically, the more information you share, the better the chance of being helped.

 

Sorry about that. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit, with Chrome 10(latest "regular" version-10.0.648.133). It was ESPN3.Com site.

I tried un-installing flash and re-installing and it didn't seem to do anything. I also tried re-installing Chrome and still had the problem. What was weird is it was working fine on that site and then just seemed to start having the crashes. I did have some extensions on Chrome, adblock plus,ghostery,WOT and forecast fox.

 

Chrome gets it first:

Google patches Flash bug before Adobe

One more argument in favor of the original versus the clones.
