I've been crashing while in Amber's chat room

Crashing, as in the browser crashing. I've used Firefox and Google Chrome. It seems like Shockwave Flash is the problem, according to Google Chrome. I've switched over to Java tonight, just to see. Has anyone else experienced these issues or is it just a problem with my computer?

I've had pretty much this issue ever since I upgraded my computer to Windows 7, so I've been trying to decide if that's the culprit. What happens is I do use the computer for awhile- specifically anything involving a media- iTunes, a Video Player, YouTube- anything of the sort. Eventually, my computer decides it won't play anymore. Usually the programs (Including my browser- I use Chrome) will just stop responding, but sometimes the Shockwave Plug-In will crash.

Try uninstalling flash (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html) and reinstalling (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/)

Strangely, when I turned on my computer this morning, I got a notice for a Flash update. Since I had a bit of freeze and lag last night too, I wonder if that will improve things.

It seems to be working a bit better, at least when I tried it out tonight. Thanks, Jawbs.

For the record, I didn't notice any issues tonight with the updated Flash. We will see if this holds.
