Or differently put: Flash is a reason to not use a site.

Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

Perhaps you should stop viewing so much pr0n. ;P

~2/3rds of the offending sites are local news (tv or newspaper) sites. If they'd get their stuff together I might actually get to the point where I could exile flash to an auxiliary browser.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

True. A local news site where I live only just recently stopped using flash.

At least for the tv stations I can hope that at some point in the medium term future someone in the ABC/CBS/FOX/NBC headquarters will force their affiliates to upgrade; that'd cut somewhere around a third of my residual flash use.

One can hope. But event some of their postings still use flash. Go figure.

The question is: why do you need flash? (A serious question: it's been a while since I've actually used a site that relied on flash)
cheers Chris Maunder
I heard that Flash would be disabled by default, but auto-enabled when you go to Privacy mode...

Mozilla is finally planning[^] to release a 64bit build for Windows in early November.:cool: Flash is still too widely used for video to avoid. :sigh: I know a few years ago the crappy state of Flash-Win-x64 was on of the reasons the 64 bit browser was backburnered. :doh: So the question is, will I have trouble running flash in FF42-x64.:confused:

Flash 19 64 bit works well with 64 bit Firefox. I'm running 64 bit Firefox 40.0.02 with Flash 19.0.0.162 (a beta build) and it works well for video etc (it runs under the control of plugin-container.exe). It's been stable for me for months now on Windows 7, 8.1 and Windows 10 systems.

Good to hear. I'll be running it on 8.1 or 10 depending on when I get around to upgrading it. Maybe 7 if I decide to force a manual update at work. (The geniuses block regular updates of FF for 'compatibility' reasons but ignore the bug fix only LTS builds; so I'm generally out of date and vulnerable to being pwned there. Their funeral, not mine.)

Care to elaborate? Mike Diack is running it without any issues.

I missed the joke icon. I meant troubles as in "Updates (almost) constantly nagging you, not mentioning the security holes".
