After upgrading to the new flash 11.8.800.94 on Firefox 23, the videos are stuck. I have uninstalled and reinstalled any/all versions of Adobe Flash, but still the same issue. I went back to Flash 10.3 version For Windows and it works fine. But I am little skeptical in using it as it does not have protection for the swf security issues. Till then I plan to revert back to Chrome, as it as well as IE works fine with Flash 11.8 version. Pls let me know if you have any solution.

Hi Waka_Floka_Flame,

Thank you for the post. I have already tried the Protected mode=0 in cfg file. I was in a doubt whether, Flash will be unsecure. Could you stree on the vulneribility part if, we put protected mode =0

I reccomend you do all other troubleshooting on that page (there is a lot of it) before disabling protected mode, but as long as you have a very good antivirus, you are fine.

I also have the same issue, which started last week. I am running FireFox 23 on Windows 7. Flash 11.8x (and also 11.7x) causes Firefox to hang when opening a web page that has flash content on it. This issue is not with the flash video content playing as the web site is hangs before I even have a chance to launch the flash video. I have to start task manager in Windows 7 to kill the firefox process to get control of the browser back. I also went back to Flash 10.3 and the web sites are fine opening, no issues. Please let me know if you have any questions.
