google shockwave game, visit second site, navigate to a page with shockwave in, right click, press 4th mouse button (or maybe some other back triggering key)

Confirmed, see this testcase:
http://wargers.org/mozilla/bug333699/333699_flash_context_crash.html
http://wargers.org/mozilla/bug333699/
I'm using Flash Player 8 (8,0,24,0), with current trunk build

Talkback ID: TB17508840E

To reproduce:
- Open testcase
- Right click on the flash object to get the context menu
- Wait a while before you're getting redirected.
- At the new page (the flash context menu is still there), dismiss the context menu by clicking somewhere.
Result: crash

I would have expected that the context menu would disappear when the other page has appeared. This is what happens in IE6.

When fixing this please consider a generic fix for all menus not just targeting flash/plugins because I'm quite sure a crash can occur with other menus e.g. changing page or other activity in the brief time the bookmarks menu is loading.
