had the same problem with debian. my solution: uninstall any current flash package (flashplugin-nonfree or flashplayer- mozilla)
get latest version (with MPEG4-AVC support) from adobe-labs: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html i got the rpm and converted to deb (sudo alien flashplayer9_install_i386_082207.rpm) installed it with "dpkg -i flash-plugin_9.0.60.184-1_i386.deb" no more hanging problems so far... :) greetz -- Firefox hangs when closing a page with flash running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
