Ever since i installed the new version of FF, i've got problems with the Plugin Container. it doesn't end the flash proccess instead it hangs FF.

Marc Moussa: Please make sure your Flash plugin is up to date: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/

If you're having issues with 3.6.4 and the Flash plugin, please take a look at Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again and increase the timeout as indicated.

Every time I try to open a website using flash FF freezes. When I go into the task manager and end "plugin-container.exe" FF begins to run again but then I can't view the page that I was trying to get to. I'm not sure if this is the same problem that you have since I don't get the message that plugin container failed, but it does sound similar to me.

I've got the lastest version of flash and your solution about the timeout didn't work.
