Flash player keeps crashing

So yeah, flash keeps crashing whenevner I open multiple tabs that use Flash and the only way to un-freeze the browser (Firefox) is to stop the Flash or the plugin container process for firefox. I'm assuming this has to do with flash not having enough memory recources and if that's the reason, how can I increase the amount of RAM flash has access to?

EDIT: Also, after re-installing flash today, turning fullscreen mode on/off on any video/stream results in a ~1 second sound cut off.

When you visit this page: 

 

Flash Player Version

What version of Flash is reported being installed? 

 

Could you please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:

How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?

In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.

A clean install of Flash helped solve the problem (at least for now). Haven't gotten a crash since the install, altough the crashes started a couple months after the last re-install of flash so we'll see if this starts happening again. Thanks for your replay.
