A solution is to downgrade to an earlier FlashPlayer version, (or to manually turn off protected mode). ==Downgrading to an earlier version Flash Player 10.3 or 11.2 == This may need you to first use an Adobe uninstall utility. The process is fully explained with suitable links in the article [[Flash 11.3 Crashes]] ==A simple method of working out whether protected mode is in use is.== # Start a new session of Firefox, preferably with only the home page or a blak tab open # Open Windows Task Manager {key Ctrl + Shift + Esc} and use the process tab # There should be no process ''plugincontainer'' running # Open and play a single Flash Player Video # If you have #* one plugincontainer process running protected mode is off #* two plugincontainer processes running indicate protected mode is in use. {for fx4} =The RealPlayer plugin has crashed= If you see this error, it means that the RealPlayer plugin was not able to handle embedded audio or video content on a webpage.
