Public bug reported:

Using Seamnkey 1.1.12 and 1.1.13 (1.1.14 is unavailable yet - Bug #315344 ) on Xubuntu 8.04.2LTS/Hardy 64-bit.
Using newest Noscript extension with flash and javascript enabled for current web page.
When user plays any Flash content on a web page opened in a browser tab ( youtube video, etc)
and then close that tab, content continue to play inside flash.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Seamonkey (with flash installed)
2. Open new tab (Ctrl+T) nad Go to page with flash (youtube.com) with Seamonkey. 
   (Enable javascript and flash content if not enabled previously)
3. open any video or flash content (possibly one with audio)
4. While flash still active, close tab opened on that web page that uses flash
5. Flash continues to play even after closing web page tab (if audio present it can be heard)

Desired behavior: Flash content inside web page should stop running when tab for a web page is closed:
Actual behavior: Flash continues to play in the background, eve after page is closed.

/Also there is huge memory usage in Seamonkey that grows over time and does not drop down
/but it is unsure to me if that is due this bug cousing memory not released or some wider Seamonkey bug.

** Affects: seamonkey (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Changed in: seamonkey (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: None => seamonkey
