2 flashplayers in one

[matthewrebus]

sometimes my flash in firefox stops working and shows a grey block instead of the flash. and after that no flashplayer in will work without a restart of firefox. This time I got a grey box in one of my tabs(see sports gamer image). In another tab I started to watch a flash video. then the player began to flicker with with what looked like a different picture. I stoped the video and I saw the fash from the sportsgamer website( see "Screenshot-Cookie Monster Defends His Honor Vs. Colbert » Oliver Willis - Mozilla Firefox.png"). When paused and/or stopped the spotsgamers flash would run like it was suppose to on the sportgamers website. scolling through the top stories and when clicking on it would sent me to the appropriate article on sportsgamer.com. then if I moved my mouse to the spot where the play button should be and clicked(buttom left). the colbert video would start to play but it would leave artifacts of the flash for sportsgamer.com(see "Screenshot-Cookie Monster Defends His Honor Vs. Colbert » Oliver Willis - Mozilla Firefox -1.png")
