I am having issues finding a work around to intall flash on my work laptop.

I did some searching and was able to find the work around below. However, there was no plugins folder and when I tried to create one, I was denied creating a new folder. So, I tried find another work around and some said I can go into Run: %APPDATA% and it will bring me to Firefiox extension, plugins, etc. There was no plugin folder, so I created one and saved it into the plugin folder. It looked like it too, but then when I went to restart Firefox, it kept crashing and running slow. I made sure that I was using the correct DLL. Is there another work around?

If you are a Firefox user and want to use Flash but do not have administrative privileges do the following:

   Download the latest version of the Firefox Flash plugin from the adobe website. Your best option is to right-click the download link and select Save As.
   Extract the contents of the downloaded file to a folder on the local system. You may need to change the file extension to zip if you have only access to the standard Windows unzipper.
   Move the two files NPSWF32.dll (NPSWF64.dll for 64 bit) and flashplayer.xpt into the Firefox plugin directory e.g.: C:\Program Files\Firefox\plugins. The plugin directory is located in the root directory if you are using a portable version of Firefox, if Firefox is installed is is located in the profile folder. Easiest option to find out where the folder is located is to enter about:support in the address bar. This works for Firefox 3.6 and up.
   If no Plugins folder exist create the folder and move the two Flash Player files into the folder.
   Restart Firefox to make this work and visit http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to check your flash player version number.
   You can now enjoy Flash based contents. Be aware that the plugin is not auto-updating itself. You need to make sure to keep it up to date manually.

Hi. When I use fire-fox, it keeps on freezing when i'm accessing any websites that use flash. Googling this problem wouldn't solve it. I have updated firefox to the latest / adobe but it wouldn't solve the problem. If I use another firefox based product like Palemon or Sea monkey, same issue occurs. Other browsers like Chrome crashes when I start it, opera crashes too much and IE is crap and slow and doesn't support much, so firefox is the only solution. I tried firefox on my friends laptop (mac) as it worked fine. It is definitely a windows 7 issue. It is associated with plugin-container.exe. No crash logs or any bug reporters were appearing. I also tried reverting to the prev version (both flash and firefox) but didn't help. This is very strange. Any help please?

Hi there,

I can't seem to like or dislike videos on YouTube in Firefox. I've tried Internet Explorer and it works fine. It's not that the buttons aren't there (which a lot of people seem to have problems with from Googling), it's just when I click on them, they don't say that I've liked/disliked it and doesn't bring up the stats for the video like they normally do. Also, when I look at my 'likes' history, the video I've tried liking doesn't come up, which shows that the 'like' hasn't worked.

Here's a print screen or what it looks like: http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/1753/15480973.png

Gave in to the "nag" screen earlier this evening and "upgraded" to Firefox 14.0.1 from 13.0.1

And since then I've had multiple "not responding" problems. Just hangs, repeatedly. Whether I'm doing anything or not. On a variety of websites - planet-f1.com, bbc.co.uk, youtube (seems worst on youtube), facebook... pretty much anything I do. It's even hung on this page once. All I get is the "circle of doom", the "not responding" top of screen, and eventually the "whitewash of death" look.

I've disabled all my add-ons (not that I had many, mainly just adblock and flash) but no avail. Cleared cache and cookies.

Seriously tempted to go back to 13! Any other ideas?

Firefox Homepage Hijacked by Claro-Search

    • RESETTING DOES NOT WORK**

Hello, I can recently acquired the Search Engine Malware? (I think it is a Malware)

http://isearch.claro-search.com/?affID=114169&tt=120812_bandext_3312_4&babsrc=HP_iclro&mntrId=907087e4000000000000002185985c90

I can not for the life of me take back the "HOMEPAGE" I have searched around everywhere and found how to take over the "NEW TAB" issue and it is back to Google.ca.

But I have yet to find a single issue with the Homepage being automatically hijacked and sending me straight back to the website no matter what I do to change the URL.

I have done the following things.

1: Removed the Toolbar from Add-ons

2: Removed the Toolbar from Control Panel

3: Shut down my computer and rebooted into Safe Mode - Networking to run Malware and other virus scanners.

4: Changed my Hosts File

5: Turned on Firefox in Safe-Mode resetting all defaults.

6: Changed the URL several times. ____________________________________________________

I can set the homepage to "Blank" which solves the issue. BUT I want Claro off my computer for good not just covered up with settings.


NOTE: I do not have expert knowledge in computerized configuration so I am at a lose into doing something like Manually checking my systems files and such to remove this issue.

If you know how to fix this, Please be detailed and simple.

Also! If i type anything into the search bar incorrectly it automatically uses iSearch-Claro to search for results.

After getting the latest update with Firefox i have run in to nothing but issues on flash related sites and any games online that require flash to use them. I'm running flash, 11.3.300.265, when I first started this with this issue I was running an older version of flash updating it only made the issue worse in Firefox. Now flash works fine in IE 9, Opera 12, Safari 5, and Google Crome, using the same sites and same version of flash. I've also removed, and disabled all add ons besides flash to see if some how they are causing an issue and that didn't fix it I've also tried removing my profile completely with no fix as well. I've also tried beta 15 with no luck as well.

I have not been able to have Firefox load successfully since yesterday. I have uninstalled and re-installed twice, still no luck, I ran a full virus scan and found no issues.

I have been given no crash IDs because it just freezes for minutes on end and then I force quit. I ran a defrag and freed up space on my computer hoping to fix this problem.

I love Firefox, but right now I am running Chrome becuase it is still working and so is IE so I know it is not a computer issue.

I hope this gets solved soon, I would love to get my Firefox up and running again. I can tell I am not the only person with this issue by looking at the forums.
