As in pressing F5 on facebook.com or youtube.com It happens every time and I have to stop the plugin. https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/248cb994-0537-4c4e-8309-5787f2131118 https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/790439ae-5430-498e-821d-6d1ae2131118

(btw, how do I make the crash report links into neat little links like in this question https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/977888 ?)

Only links with a bp- prefix are converted to links:

You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:

  • disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
  • disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

It seems to have solved it self. Guess whatever Facebook and Youtube were toying with got janked out again. I disabled protected mode anyway (I use NoScript and other plugins and have a good AV) to see if I get less flash crashes in general from now on. Thanks for your guidance. =)
