Same here, abrt keeps popping up when I close Firefox. It happened with
3.5.5 and now also happens with 3.5.6. Triage guys must be going crazy with
this, it's been reported dozens of times already...

Regarding Flash, 64-bit alpha version 10.0.32.18 used to work very nice for
me; ever since I upgraded to latest 10.0.42.34 Flash started to behave
weirdly on Firefox (eg. ignoring mouse clicks on most of YouTube embedded
videos). It works just fine on Chrome, though. Go figure =/
