I have noticed in the past few times I have had a tap or two opened with something flash on them (youtube, vuze, etc..) and both safari and firefox crashing. Anyone else have this problem?

Those two web browsers seem to be crashing an awful lot lately.

I have a macbook pro 2007, running: 10.4.11

thanks for the help.
 
Firefox 3.6 is crashing frequently for me, but it's not related to Flash. It seems to be related to autocomplete in the URL or search bar.

Flash can cause a browser to crash, and I've had it happen plenty of times. I use Flashblock in Firefox so no flash will run unless I tell it to. Click to Flash for Safari does the same thing.

thanks for the tip:D
