Flash Freezes Internet Browsers in Win7 64x

I'm not for sure if this has been asked yet, but this is quite a strange problem (I could not search this part of the forum because the advertising freezes any browser I use).

Anyway, every little flash program freezes my internet browsers (Internet explorer, firefox and google chrome). And it is driving me nuts because even the advertising causes my browser to mess up. >_>

Anyone had this problem or ever got it fixed? I even attempted to reinstall the flash and no luck (Note, this is on a Dell 14z laptop I'm using).

Sorry to tell you, but there is no 64bit version of flash. You need to run 32 bit version of firefox/ie/chrome

But their is an open source 64 bit flash project for FF, that might work.

He's saying that it freezes all browsers in the 64-bit version of Windows 7. But I have absolutely no problem with Flash in my 64-bit version of Windows 7.

He's not discussing a 64-bit version of Flash, nor is he asking if there is one. He's just saying he needs help to figure out what could be causing it.

Forgive me for reviving an old topic but I use Win7 x64 and flash has not crashed my browsers, I came here looking for a x64 GPL version of Flash but I just wanted to say anyone who uses firefox (everyone should) you should also use a Firefox addon called "NoScript" - It will block flash advertisements and pretty much any feature on a web page until you click a button to allow it.
