I had flash-block enabled. I un-installed flash-block but that did not help either. I tried both the rpm and tarred version of the flash-block from the Adobe site. The only option was to remove the plugin from /opt/firefox/plugins.

I've had some occasional problems with it also.  What version are your
using?  Enter "about:plugins" in the address bar to check.
I'm about to upgrade to Ubuntu Hardy Heron so I'll be using 3.0 beta
5.  Hopefully that fixes it.
