My favorite forum website recently dropped support for IE. This specific reason, is the ONLY reason I stopped using IE. Firefox has a much closer resemblance to IE than chrome, and this is the ONLY reason I chose it over chrome.

Everything works fine, except every and all flash applications. Youtube, animated ads, games... everything causes huge cpu load spikes and lags like crazy (I'm sure it would cause a crash on a basic computer). I have a very high end rig, the problem is not my hardware, or internet speed (100mbs). It is entirely fire fox.

All flash apps work FINE on IE/chrome, I tested them. Please offer support, thank you.

Crashes or other problems with certain multimedia content in Firefox (such as Youtube videos and Flash animations or games) can often be resolved by performing the steps in these Knowledge Base articles:

On Windows Vista and above, you can disable Flash protected mode by following the instructions on these pages:

(See this Adobe blog post for technical details about Flash protected mode.)


For recent updates for Adobe Shockwave Flash, please update your version to 14. Please refer to the security updates and Adobe Security Bulletin for more information.

Please tell us if this helped!

Flash works in firefox... it's all there and working. It just works SLOW and extremely inefficient. Inefficient as in taking up way more CPU than normal.

I tried all your suggested actions, flash still sucks in firefox only.
