I have Firefox 0.9.3 installed on a Debian Testing box. There are two users that, as far as I can see (I set the box up ) have the same rights on the box. User A can use firefox to access sites that need flash. No problems at all. Player B can access the same site and start to use flash but suddenly, firefox exits. Both users started with a clean sheet as far a firefox/mozilla are concerned. I removed .firefox from user B's home -- to no effect. I am confused.
And here is my own quick and dirty solution>>
1 back up user's personal data
2 delete user account and /home/user
3 add user
4 log in
voila!! no more flash problems. I have no idea what caused the issue. The only thing I can imagine is gremlins.
