This has started today. K, basic stats: Windows XP Pro, SP3, antivirus programs are Spybot and Symantec Antivirus (both required by my college or I can't access their network) The Flash Player Plug-In keeps crashing in Chrome. I either get the navy-blue "Aw, Snap!" page or a yellow bar telling me the Flash player has crashed. I first noticed it on Facebook when I was trying to play some of my favorite games, and at first some games would work and others wouldn't, then none would work. Other sites seems to be doing the same thing: either reporting Flash has crashed or a black window is shown where the game or video would be. So far I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome, which hasn't worked, clearing browsing history on both my PC and Chrome, updating Flash Player, and reinstalling Flash. I've got Firefox open to use Flash Player now, but it's been painfully slow for ages, especially with a certain game I play on Facebook. I preferred Chrome simply because it was fast, but this issue is knocking out nearly most of the sites I frequent daily. The only thing I haven't tried yet is rolling the system back on a System Restore to a past recovery point, but that makes me nervous even though the latest save point is Saturday. Any help? I'm actively looking for fixes as I type this. EDIT: Did a little more poking around and it seems any sites that aren't Facebook load Flash just fine. I haven't tried Youtube yet, but many of the sites and blogs I found in my search mentioned it was another reason for crashing.
