Question

Flash9b.ocx crash once again

Hi, all

I'd really like to see an official message from Adobe concerning the issue with Flash9b.ocx crashing in IE. Surely they must have received a lot of messages from disgruntled users.

I work for an online newspaper and we have several hundred thousand page impressions every day. And for lots of users our front page causes the Flash player to crash. It's practically impossible to isolate which banner ad(s) that will lead to a crash.

My theory is that there are certain ActionScript commands that are handled in a different manner in the new player, while swfs that contain only animation will work.

    Hi all,

    well ... between all this spam, a message that Adobe issued an update of Flash today : Adobe Flash Player version 9.0.124.0.

    Let's hope it also deals with the problem we have been posting about here.

    Cheers!

    Here is the update :

    My IE crashed every time I went to page with flash content in five seconds . Just boot ,run IE and go to adobe.com .After 5 seconds IE crashes . My second PC does not. And the BIG difference is just one bit: the working machine runs Flash9d.ocx , the non-working Flash9e.ocx.

    I am completely new here...just found this forum this afternoon.


    I have the new updated Flashplayer9, I also have a Zazzle store (*which uses a flash panel to display items on anyone's store front) and go to many art websites including Deviant Art (*that has flash all over the place). My IE crashes and drops me just the same. I also have Norton and it detects this as a Medium severity problem. I tried going in and copy/pasting flash9 dot ocx, and creating the fake flash dot ocx to stop this error. It is still an issue with the newest version. I do graphics, I am not all that techy but I am also not a total idiot, I have a fast system and 4 GB of memory, Pent4 Dual, and a invidia 1900 video card (*I think that is it, duh). Anyway. I too, have a new Dell GX 745. Strangely just recently I "Lost" a download folder with 47GB of info off my D drive, just went poof! and now more then ever I think it is due to this strange Flashplayer issue. I have resisted FF for the last 5 years. I don't know why, maybe I don't like change... But at this rate I am so fed up. I cannot believe that this company (*Adobe) with all the money it makes (*like off of me for CS!) can't get thier collective 'poop' in a neat pile still!
    *sigh
    Is FF the only way?
