OSX Lion crashes when using the flash plugin only in Firefox
I have had this problem for a while now. My Macbook crashes whenever Firefox is opened and playing a flash video. Ironically this doesn't happen if my version of Firefox is version 8 or less. It doesn't happen on Safari, it just causes Safari to crash on occasion but no where near as much as Firefox. I have 10.7.4 as my version of Lion.

What exactly is causing this to happen? Its quite annoying and very inconvenient. As a web developer I can't simply stop using Firefox. I have to be able to test in all browsers.
