So far, this seems to give me more problems than it seems to fix. I never really used to have any problems with Flash in Firefox before this feature came out. Now, Firefox will crash for no apparent reason when loading certain Flash apps. And it's really not a crash, more of a hard-freeze. The only way to fix it that I've found so far is killing FF in task manager... weird. And I would normally call it a PC problem, but it's happened on more than one PC.

I have switched to Chrome and really, I don't see myself going back.
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!

They quickly went to version 3.6.5 and then 3.6.6

I've never had any problems with Firefox. I have found that most issues are caused by plugin.

I do like Chrome, but until they put password protection in Chrome and have plugins comparable to NoFlash and AdBlock, I can't use it all the time.
