Q to Firefox and Flash

  Hi there,

  for the longest time, I stayed with Flash 26 as a plugin to Firefox 60.

  Now, it's becoming uncomfortable. FF complains about a "vulnerable, outdated plugin" and demands an update.

  Are there any recommendations as to which Flash version works or works not? The current one is v30.

  Appreciate any thought!

  I'm using v29 with FF with no issues at all, if that is any help.

  Yep - thanks a lot!

  It means that I may leave v26 and skip 27 and 28.

  Any news on v30, anyone?

  Now I'm also on

  Tigerpaw509:

  FireFox 61.0.2 with Flash 30.0.0.1

  and it works well - albeit with the same occasional sensibility towards CPU overload and shutdown like before.

  My CPU temperature use to go from 53C to near 90C before cleaning and it really affected the meter,so be sure everything inside your machine is cleaned of dust and all components are plugged in all the way.I am sure you know this but others may not
