Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Upgraded the following packages:
flashplugin-nonfree (9.0.124.0ubuntu2) to 10.0.1.218+10.0.0.525ubuntu1~hardy1
Ubuntu 8.04.1
Kernel 2.6.24-19-generic


Get immediate crash at this address: www.euronews.net  Page won't even load.  Firefox just goes down.

Had no problems with Flash or Firefox up to this point.  The above page
is a favorite spot I visited often.

After reading the notes on the update, I decided to file a separate bug
report.  Perhaps the older plugin should be made available in the
repository?  Until this problem straightens out?
