Everytime I go to youtube or perezhilton.com my firefox stalls and shows the spinning wheel. I end up having to close firefox by forcing it to quit by going to finder. I am using a mac. I have tried re-installing firefox and updating adobe. The firefox still crashes even when in safe mode.

The crash report flagged these programs;

Signature hang

Process Type plugin Shockwave Flash Version:17.0.0.169

AppKit

libsystem_kernel.dylib =  ? Word for Mac

libdispatch.dylib =  ? Word for Mac

HIToolbox

CoreFoundation

For some time now, a lot of Mac’s with Microsoft programs have been crashing. Check with Microsoft / Mac support sites.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
