Same here flash crashes Firefox randomly in Ubuntu.

 Ive tried many things to fix this and now it is only  crashes 
occasionally but still its not 100% but i can live with it for browsing 
the web.

If i want to watch flash videos i just fire up opera hasn't crashed once.

Firefox seems to have no problem in vista or xp i tested both at work.
