Flashblock+gnash now works fine for me in Seamonkey and Firefox 3.1beta2.

close bug(?).

Everything indicates that this issue does not still occur with Gnash trunk.

I would, however, appreciate if this bug could remain open for 48h as it only happened sometimes, not always. No crash in the next to days would really confirm that this is no longer an issue.

Hi Øyvind,

Are you able to test whether this issue still occurs with Gnash trunk or the release branch?

Thanks!

Firefox frequently crashes when flashblock is enabled the gnash plugin is enabled.

This makes gnash a sour experience since it makes the computer almost halt when visit a page with numerous flash adveritsements on them (even when gnash is set to start in pause mode, which really doesn't make much difference to it's CPU-hogging).

I was amazed to find no bug about this at savannah as there's close to one bug filed on this pr. distribution.
