I occasionally have firefox hang on a flash page - no segfault 
reported,  it just stops
responding. It doesn't do this on all pages, flash ads are OK. It 
happens most often on You
Tube. I haven't noticed any other issues. It seems OK right up to the 
point where it stops.
I haven't tried GNASH. I note that it implements swf v7. It depends if 
this is enough for
the most websites, and for the ones you use regularly. It claims to 
support You Tube, so
I may try it.
