    Default Flash Player Alternative

    Anyone know of a viable alternative to Flash Player.
    I'm running Win7 with 16 gig of ram and inspite of keeping Firefox and Flash updated I still get baulkiness in Firefox and flash player crashing.
    Cheers
    Paul

    VLC Media Player is very good (Google is your friend).

    Been using VLC for years, Flash player is what you use for streaming audio, video and other stuff through a browser - completely different to what VLC does.
    And yeah I could use google, the term "flash player alternative" gives me 95 500 000 hits, and probably 95 499 900 of those are crap.
    I'm asking here in the hope that someone is using an alternative they can recommend, and also tell me what to avoid.

    I've found Firefox 'baulkiness' is often related to keeping too large a history as well as having an occasional rouge 'hidden' firefox process chewing resources in the background. I now clean out the history every now and then and only keep the extensions I really need and want with very few problems.

    I do however wish I could someway get Firefox to work reliably on Android.
