I'm sick of Chrome!!!
I have windows 8 and use chrome...
When i click on some links, like 'answers' or anything that streams a small video it locks up...
Then a brown bar pops up at the top of the page which says Flash player has stopped working...
I think its a conflict between flash player on chrome and adobe player which was installed with windows...
But i can't figure out how to sort it. |

Should be an option on that bar - to 'allow' or similar.
You've got the latest flash yes?
I know browsers like ff disable flash, but you just click to allow.
Take it you've got latest Adobe yes |

I'd probably uninstall and reinstall flash, just in case.
There's this info on chrome's site:
Fix Flash problems
If Flash isn't working, try these solutions to fix the problem:
Step 1: Turn on PPAPI plug-ins.
Open Chrome.
In the address bar at the top, type chrome://plug-ins and press Enter.
Click Details.
Scroll down to "Adobe Flash Player".
Under "Type: PPAPI", click Enable.
Step 2: Make sure that Chrome is up to date. You get Adobe Flash player on Chrome automatically, and it updates when Chrome does.
Step 3: Update Adobe Flash Player manually.
Open Chrome.
In the address bar at the top, type chrome://components and press Enter.
Under "pepper_flash", click Check for update.
Plug-ins that use NPAPI, including Silverlight, Java and Unity, won’t work. |

I think the problem could be a conflict between adobe flash and flash player which until recently i thought were the same... |

Chrome is shite. It may have a small footprint and be very light on machine resources, but there are so many issues and limitations that I just live with the overhead of firefox as it behaves and does what I want. |
