User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10

When I go to http://www.aerocomm.com/, the page renders the text and most of the
images, and then Firefox crashes. The page does require Flash. I have not
experienced this problem on other web sites that use Flash. I can't tell what
version of Flash I have installed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load Firefox
2. alt-d, http://www.aerocomm.com/<enter>
3. wait ~10 seconds

Actual Results:  
Firefox crashed.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should have continued loading the page.

I have the Mozilla Quality Feedback agent installed, however it doesn't seem to
be doing anything. I looked it up in the Firefox help and I didn't see any
instructions to make sure it's enabled. How do I enable it?

Ok, I just discovered about:plugins, here's my Flash info:

Shockwave Flash
File name: npswf32.dll
Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19

That appears to be the latest version as of today 10/15/2004:

http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

Version:  	7,0,19,0

Hrmm or not,

I'll install that and see if that fixes the problem.

Installing Flash (from above) fixes the problem.  Oddly, about:plugins still
shows the same version:

Shockwave Flash
File name: npswf32.dll
Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19

<shrug> Regardless, it appears to me to be a Macromedia problem. Closing ticket.
