[Bug 293170] [NEW] [Intrepid] Having Firefox open for a while prevents new flash objects from being displayed

[Jean-Paul]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

When I have Firefox open for a while (I don't exactly know how long, it could be half an hour, it could be for a couple of hours), and I surf to a flash-enabled site (for example, Youtube), I don't get to see the flash content, I only get to see the background color of Firefox. 
This continues until I restart Firefox (which can be a real pain because at any given time I mostly have more than 10 tabs open, and they aren't cached).

I filed the bug against Firefox-3.0, but the problem just as well might
be with flashplugin-nonfree or nsplugin (actually more likely one of
these, but Firefox could provide some debug info, which might be handy).
