Using Adobe Flash Player 10.0.45.2 there is no delay or jams. I still must use 
Firefox 3.5.2.dmg to get any Flash plug-in to work on the Washington Post site.

What is "ibx-upd-6-5-0a-10-u01-8l" ?  A google search chows that is Canon Image 
Browser, and has nothing to do with FireFox, Flash, or anything we have been previously 
testing.


        That's really "cut the wrong thing and paste without checking."

        'install_flash_player_osx_ub.dmg' is the correct article.

All browsers share the same plug-in.  Have you cleared out all the junk the 
older plug-ins leave around and really started from scratch?  Do you need a 
list of locations to look to know where to find these files to clean out?

        I ran the 'Adobe Flash Player Uninstaller.app' and crossed my fingers.

In any event, Firefox-3.5.2 with Adobe Flash Player 10.0.45.2 as the plug-in seems to run OK. That's on Mac OS 10.6.4 (10F569), Kernel Version Darwin 10.4.0, so I'm no longer suspicious of the Apple core updates for this box. It's between Adobe and Mozilla; my money is on Mozilla as the culprit; it's not the first time they've screwed up on stuff graphical.

        Aren't they bragging about their native video capability?

        Shalom,
