Firefox 3 Crash in Ubuntu 8.04

Firefox 3 almost always crashes when I try to visit certain sites. I'm pretty sure it's related to the Flash content somehow. I've been using Ubuntu for 2.5 years and EVERY SINGLE RELEASE has had problems with Flash crashing the browser.

Solution

First you need to download and Install nspluginwrapper

you need to install libflashsupport using the following command

sudo apt-get install libflashsupport

Run the following commands

sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

Now you need to Restart firefox

Well, I have the same problem, but I solve it with:

sudo apt-get purge --remove libflashsupport
