Hello Israel.

Firefox 3.6.4 and above handle (and will handle) plugins in a different way, to prevent them from crashing the whole browser when they crash. It's possible that that behavior is causing this problem. Contact Microsoft to let them know about this, in the meantime.

To try and see if this is really an issue with Firefox 3.6.4 specifically, create a new Firefox profile (temporary): managing profiles, and see if it still has the same problem.

I can confirm this is an issue

I suggest you search for a bug at bugzilla. If there's none, please submit it. Remember to be as clear and as "surgical" as possible, so the developers can work on it as fast as possible.

Check http://forums.silverlight.net/forums/.../188434.aspx. 3.6.4's new plugin model causes the problem but there is a workaround for now.

Thanks for the replys. The link was the answer.

I have the same problem in Firefox 3.6.6
