That doesnt stop Adobe Flash Player from crashing. It just doesnt crash Firefox with it, but it does lock up FF for about 30secs while the plugin crashes, which happens constantly.

Ahh, I see what you mean now. Unfortunately neither browser stops Flash from being a piece of shit and crashing but oh well. Chrome isolates plugins on a per tab basis I believe which is why it recovers faster. When a Firefox Flash process crashes it restarts every instance of Flash in FF that you have open at the time which is a really dumb way to do it. I hope they change it in future versions. I'm running on an SSD so its like a split second thing but for users with HDDs its probably unbearable.

The web in general will be a better place when HTML5 video is more commonplace and we can move away from proprietary plugins.
