Anyone having flash problem with Firefox 14?
Just updated to Firefox 14, and flash is getting weird. If I open 2 tabs and both have some kind of flash contents, if I switch from tab 1 to tab 2, then switch back and tab 1 will just show tab 2's contents, only the flash part. Like if I open 2 youtube videos and switch between the 2, one might just get stuck with the other's screen. Only disappears when I minimize and open it again. What's wrong with it?

First check you have the latest version of Flash Player from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Then read this if you still have problems:
A recent Flash Player update introduced sandboxing for Firefox which separates and restricts the process to increase security. However, this seems to have introduced other issues and it may be the cause of your problem (I had this problem too, and it was fixed by my following instructions).
You can disable protected mode by a very simple text line. See here for instructions:
------------------------------------
To disable Protected Mode, open the mms.cfg file located in:
Windows 32bit: C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash
Windows 64bit: C:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash
and ADD this line:
ProtectedMode=0
NOTE: If the mms.cfg file does not exist, create one using any standard text editor (e.g.. notepad)
NOTE2: If you are unable to open or save the mms.cfg file, move it to the Desktop, edit it there and then move it back.
If it does not work, re-enable Protected Mode by simply removing the line from the mms.cfg file.
------------------------------------
Alternatively, view this video on another web browser or computer for instructions (ignore the references to the "downloader extension"): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReB-8gTKcRE

I have seen similar problems the last few days with customer machines.
Un-install flash player and air via add remove programs and then reinstall from adobes website that should resolve the problem.
