There is a memory leak concerning BitMapData in Flash 8. Didn't try your app, but the word "snapshot" makes me think you might be using this. Although I don't think it was a big enough leak to crash the browswer immediately.

I ran the movie a few times, and I didn't have any trouble till I clicked the "shapshot" button. Every time I clicked that button, Firefox crashed immediately. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2006 10:28 AM To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] Q:Flash 8 and memory leaks Hi I built a quick demo recently thats crashing my Firefox browser...:) www.bitstream.ca/flash8/ Is anyone aware of any memory leak issues as they pertain to flash 8?
