Thanks for your advice. I removed swfdec-mozilla. I was unsure exactly where the firefox profile is held so I completely uninstalled and removed everything I could find related to firefox and flash. I then rebooted and reinstalled them. It appears that I did not remove the profile but whatever I did seems to have cured the problem.

Thank you,
Robert Nickless.

> The Flash player has stopped working with Firefox 3.0. Websites state that flash needs updating but when try I am told that a later version is already installed. I  have tried uninstalling Flash and reinstalling. I have tried uninstalling and installing the version the websites want.  I have tried Firefox 3.5. Nothing makes any difference. My installation is pretty much out of the box with nothing unusual installed.
