I am running 9.10 on my desktop and 10.4 on my older laptop.  After
recent updates for firefox 3.6.7, I started having issues with some
sites causing firefox to crash.  I fired up the laptop and went
through the same updates and had no issues.  I tried several possible
fixes for the desktop and nothing worked.  I finally saved my
bookmarks, renamed .mozilla and did a reinstall on the latest version
of firefox.  Everything started working again.  I am assuming that
there was something in the cache (even after clearing it) or the
configuration was corrupted during the update.  You might consider the
same thing with firefox/Adobe Flash Media player.  If his problem
occurred after the firefox update, he may be dealing with corrupted
config files.

Just a thought.
