Flash keeps crashing and/or slowing down, drastically. I have done the "about:plugins" thing and followed the instructions, but the problem persists.
I have two Flash entries in the "remove programs" section of Control Panel, "Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X", and "Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin".
I am thinking I should uninstall both entries, and just re-install Adobe Flash?? Or switch browsers? I used to be a Firefox fan, but went with Chrome some years ago and haven't had any issues until now. (I guess I use Flash mostly (?) for listening to radio online, live and podcasts.)
Any advice?

Any advice? I had that the other day. Video was playing at like 60% and choppy.. Because I had something else open hogging the Hardware Decoder, and another video using the software decoder, and apparently neither of them wanted to let go. I ended up C-A-D, and ending process on Chrome, and the other program using Flash (FireFox I think it was), and re-opening Chrome.

What does this "C-A-D" mean?

Flash has been unreliable off and on for a few months now. Seems to be their fault though, not Firefox. Once I get it ok I stop the auto updates.

Apparently, the industry is moving away from Flash, albeit slowly (been "moving" for a couple years). Microsoft, Apple, Firefox are among those leading the way. Why? It has a lot of issues -- security and function.
Adobe is even phasing it out. Adobe no longer updating Flash for Android mobile devices. Some Android devices automatically uninstall Flash -- requires a manual reinstall in some cases (e.g. my ASUS Transformer Infinity tablet).
But, not dead yet as not everyone has made the switch.
