Windows 8, Firefox and Flash???

Anyone here solve the problem In Firefox under Windows 8 where all the pages that have flash on them freeze the browser for what seems like forever and even almost crashes the system? How did the people building firefox not see this coming?

Thanks

Try disabling Hardware Acceleration in Firefox

Tools>Options

Advanced (top), General tab

Untick Hardware Acceleration when available

Click OK, restart Firefox

Fixed the problem!
I redownloaded flash and also tweeked firefox to run in compatibility mode with windows XP SR 3. You can set this by right-clicking on properties of your firefox hortcut under Windows 8 and opening the compatibility Tab. Either this or the new download fixed the problem, can't be sure which.

Cheers
