flash plugin only crashing in Mozilla
Have trouble when navigating facebook. Mozilla hangs for 5 to 6 seconds, freezing every mozilla tab or window that is open and sometimes crashes.
On facebook I get the "script is taking too long" message but I suspect that it has something to do with flash cause from time to time I get the plugin container failed related to flash and some other weird behaviour with flash (see below)
Things I tried: - Disable every plugin. - Running safe mode - Refresh Firefox - Disable hardware accelleration on the flash plugin - Disable safe mode for Flash plugin
- Completely uninstal flash according to this procedure: https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
I am running a recently freshly instaled win 8.1 on a 12GB RAM i7 quad processor.
The thing that makes me suspect is that according to this link: https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
When I right click the flash logo for that procedure, Mozilla freezes, nothing gets displayed and some seconds later I get a "Shockwave Flash might be busy... stop plugin..." message
This is very annoying and I want to use Firefox but have been forced to chrome lately cause I cannot find this problem.
Please, any help is appreciated.

Is it happening on more than one webpage? If you change the plugin to 'click to play'?

Main problem is not using or not using flash. Main problem is with facebook page hanging mozilla for several seconds at a time and sometimes getting "script is taking too long" I guess this have to do with the scritp that loads posts on your facebook wall as you scroll down but cannot find what is causing that.
This only happens with Mozilla.
Searching for the cause, I found that odd behaviour with flash on that page wich maybe suggest the problem is there but I still haven't found a solution.
