I'll try bugmenot's tip soon but I'd like to share that this bug affects not only Firefox, but also Opera, Flock, Epiphany, and Konqueror. What I usually do to prevent my browser from hanging is to stop whatever video's playing, switch to another tab, and middle-click the tab with the flash video. This usually prevents whatever browser I'm using from hanging, however, it's not a 100% prevention tip. I'll also try systemjack's tip later, if that works, then I there's no reason for me to install the beta package from Adobe.
