Adobe CTO Kevin Lynch claims that the company's ubiquitous Flash plug-in doesn't ship with any known crash bugs. One can only assume that he has never used the software. As Adobe representatives exhibit an increasingly dismissive attitude about Flash's technical deficiencies, the browser vendors have stepped up to address the problems and are finding ways to insulate their users from Flash's poor security and lack of stability.

Several mainstream browsers isolate Flash and other plug-ins in separate processes in order to prevent an unstable plug-in from crashing the entire browser. Mozilla is preparing to introduce a similar feature in the next version of Firefox. A developer preview that was recently made available to users offers an early look at the new plugin crash protection.

I see. That's why 3.6.2 is on hold

Solution.. use the new Adobe Flash beta... Truthfully though I think the problem could come from sites using old and deprecated methods or code.. and using Flash apps which have been around way too long..

This has been the only time I have seen this issue... The last crash... I have seen with Flash was about a year ago... but then again I don't do too much browsing to places with tons of flash games and multiple vids per page which really ramp up usage while loading.. which usually leads to the crash.. or triggered crash when you get tired of waiting..

People need rules to define it I think.. before they start throwing so much up on a page.. Just my opinion on it in a way...
