RE: Flash 11.x Plug-In Full Screen crashing in FF, SM
A great many Firefox and a fair reported number of SM users are reporting back to Mozilla and Adobe that Flash Plug-In 11.x is crashing the Flash Player Plug-In when going to full screen (aka FS) Flash display. The "normal" default size Flah Plug-In appears to work satisfactorily for the vast percentage of users and report-backs. The crashing when optioning to Flash FS is sometimes 100% repeatable, and at other times closing and re-running the web-page or Flash plug-in, then again selecting Flash Plug-In FS no longer shows any problem, especially for that particular web-site or page. There are also crash reports coming in from Apple OS users as well.
So far, very little insider/tech information is forthcoming from any source, although Mozilla and Adobe are looking into the respective and other apps, and it appears this will be solved.
So far, the Mozilla "answer" is to uninstall Flash Plug-In 11.x and revert back to the last 10.x Flash install, but that's not as likely or recommended because 11 solved a few other operational and security problems, yet that reversion option may have to be done.
Adobe has signaled that the core app with the problem is indeed Flash 11.x Plug-In.
JR Personal Reflection Bottom line: End-users who fully and intentionally disable the likes of Flash plug-in, PHP, Java and even JavaScript browser operations are in reality doing more to "damage" their browser operations and shut themselves out of a great many needful and useful web-sites world-wide. Many users who do the above and dwalk away from those options then wonder why a great many web-sites and pages no longer work or display properly, then start suspecting the browser or the OS, etc.
