Closing youtube crashes my browser

[Maka]

Happened one more time yesterday. Hoping Google will bring a fix soon or something.

[Joeri]

It is caused by chrome's build in flash, fixable for now by switching to an installed flash build.

• Go to about:plugins
  
• Disable all flash plugins (open detailed view)
  
• Restart browser
  
• Download the latest flash from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
  
• Open about:plugins again and make sure only the file in the windows folder is enabled
  

`
If this didn't help, disable hardware acceleration by going to a randon flash video and open the settings with a right click.
Untick this box:

my firefox is randomly crashing or freezing too at times, especially on youtube. Could it be the same problem? (don't wanna hijack the thread, just a question)

Sounds familiar. Since a short while my screen freezes for 2 seconds whenever I open a page. It's not on all pages though, mostly LVP pages it seems.

Tell me a single reason you would want to close a YouTube tab!

Firefox beta versions fucks up most of the times but other version works fine for me. i was planning to move to Chrome. but since my brothers are facing this same gay problem of crashing so.. i'll stick with my firefox only <3

my firefox crashes only when its totally closed and i try to open a website from samp client XD idk why it just dont open and gives me that annoying crash error.
works perfectly fine when firefox is open
