Any time I try and load a Flash movie all of mozilla locks up.  I have tried
reinstalling the flash plugin.  As far as I am know this only happened after
upgrading to 0.9.8.  I dont have an old version installed to check but I will
try doing that later.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mozilla
2. Go to shockwave.com
3.  killall mozilla-bin

Actual Results:  Mozilla locksup.  It has no screen refreshs or anything.

Expected Results:  It should have loaded the flash player

My other plugins work fine.  I have tested java and realplayer.  My only fix for
the moment is to remove the flash plugin.  Alot of sites seem to be using flash
for their banner ads now so I was getting random lockups.

dup of bug 58339?
Reporter: Are you playing sound when this happens? (xmms or other..)
"dup of bug 58339?" I don't think so.

shockwave.com works fine with me (Win98).
Bah.  It is a dup.  I just tested without playing any sounds and I can run flash
fine.  As soon as I stop XMMS it loads.
