can i get around firefox and flash sucking up all my system resources?
Firefox 42 and Adobe Flash 19.0.0.245 but both are sucking up all my system memory which slows lots of internet stuff down. I have plug-ins set to ask only but can't see videos etc with out running flash. Firefox sucking up nearly 1 gb sometimes. Flash sucking up over 1 GB sometimes.
Using Windows XP Pro 64 with 3 GB total memory. 256GB SSD.

This will stop flash from starting until you want it.
Flash block {web link} Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
- see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

- disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
