So it seems my crashiness might be more due to java issues than
flash. (I'm still keeping clicktoflash--I like it very much.)
FWIW, I've gotten my cleaning up down to just two Onyx operations:
under "Cleaning" I do most of the internet options (not form values,
bookmark icons or cookies) and everything under "caches".
That seems to give me smooth sailing until I hit something problematic.
One thing I've come to dislike about cnn.com is that some of their
stories are video-only. (I've never gotten their video to play
smoothly, so I avoid them whenever possible.) Those stories are
usually marked with a video icon, but not always. That nightmare you
speak of could well be what's causing my problems. I could easily
believe that I've hit one of those pages before the crashiness kicks in.
