A window pops-up and a Shockwave Flash file is loaded in it.
Then mozilla and the Shockwave plugins freezes.
Mozilla recovers if I kill the window with the plugin.

I use Shockwave Flash 5.0 r50 plugin. With exactly the same plugin, Opera
browser works well on this page.

If this can help, my OS is a RedHat 6.1

Did you try with flash plugin 5.0 r51 ? Maybe it should help.

this also freezes win2k, I believe this is a dup of the Flash CPU usage issue.
Shrir can you please verify.
