nonononononono... start /FireFox/ in safe mode... not your computer or
operating system... look in your menus for the Mozilla section and you should
find a couple of FireFox launchers in there... one of those is for its safe
mode where none of the extra stuff is loaded... if you still have the problem
in safe mode, then the problem is deeper than flash...
