Netflix crashes in all browsers

I've read all the threads here. I have the most recent silverlight, and I've reinstalled it many times. I've tried all my browsers.

I'm on a macbook air 13" (current gen) 1.7Ghz i5.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

I'm impressed. That is a lot of threads. When do you have time to watch movies?

Sounds like an Adobe Flash issue.

I thought Netflix used Flash. It may use both Silverlight and Flash. Regardless, the problem is with that 3rd party software and it would be best to contact either Microsoft or Adobe, respectively, about your problem.

It's a silverlight issue. Microsoft's customer service was excellent, but they weren't able to fix it. In the end, I had to wipe my computer clean (for a different reason), and now it works. So, I don't know what to say. If you do wipe your computer, keep in mind that if you restore from a time machine backup you'll still have the problem.
