Adobe Flash script error (reposting from Meta)

One of your flash-based ads (i believe) is hanging up chrome on win 7 64bit

just thought someone would like to know.


I don't know which ad it is as I select to stop the script so it never loads the ad - it's happened to me 3 or 4 times today but I don't recall it happening before today.

The page gets hung up when I go from reading a thread back to reading the forum. It won't load until I elect to stop the script and then I assume it goes to the next ad and loads right up. I see an ad for stubhub right now so I assume it's not that one! lol

and after a reboot of the PC and a restart of Chrome, it disappeared. Chrome has a nasty habit of loading multiple iterations of its main module, and I think that sometimes interferes with add-ons. I'm not sure, but the reboot fixed the problem you're having for some reason. I hate Flash, by the way.

you won't find me saying much nice about Flash. Although I hate PDFs even more.


Love Photoshop though. I don't own it because it's too expensive but I would if I could.
