Wikiole Feb 10, 2014 7:21 AM (in response to StanGWL)Same Problem here with Internet Explorer 9 and Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.44.
As soon as you browse to a site with Flash content IE9 hangs.

StanGWL Feb 10, 2014 7:31 AM (in response to Wikiole)We found that if you remove Adobe ShockWave that the new Flash version would work. Even installing the latest version of ShockWave would cause the IE page with flash content to hang. Seem to be something wrong with having the 2 products installed. It only seems to effect the ActiveX version that is used by IE.

Mike M Feb 10, 2014 9:58 AM (in response to StanGWL)Like the Flash Player, there are two versions of Shockwave.
ActiveX and standard.
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Shockwave Player 12 (other browsers)
http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/otherversions/ for the ActiveX

4. Re: Installed Flash Player 12.0.0.44 and IE8 hangs on Flash content
daytime10 Feb 11, 2014 7:57 AM (in response to StanGWL)We are also having this issue on about 800 machines with IE10, we have it with any of the newer 12 Flash versions. 11 and previous works fine. What did Adobe add to 12 that is causing all this incompatibility?
IE freezes on loading of Flash content
We had to roll back to 11.7.600.261 which has the latest security fix for now until Adobe releases a 12 that actually works on IE.
We do not have Shockwave Player installed on any of the machines having issues, any one else find any other ideas?

BensonChan Feb 11, 2014 9:59 AM (in response to daytime10)Same issue here with IE8 and Flash 12...44, I left the hung IE opened for 30 + min unintentionally and flash page opened. Closed IE and opened again, works fine...
Obviously not a fix but hopefully spark some ideas as to why this is happening.

daytime10 Feb 11, 2014 12:43 PM (in response to BensonChan)We had the same behavior on some machines if we left IE open it would eventually resolve itself.
We need a fix Adobe, 800 machines with the same issue.... all IE10/9

Martin Schneeberger Feb 12, 2014 12:54 AM (in response to StanGWL)Same Issue with IE9 and IE10. We have the issue with or without "Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0.9.149". If we left IE open, sometimes it resolve itself.

Raininator Feb 12, 2014 2:20 AM (in response to StanGWL)Same issue with IE7/8/9/10. sometimes it resolves itself when IE is left open for 5+ minutes, sometimes not. 2500+ clients affected. 2 users on the same computer, for one it works just fine now, the other one still has this performance problem. downgrade to previous flash (12.0.0.38) did not solve the problem.

BensonChan Feb 12, 2014 6:08 AM (in response to Wikiole)I called Adobe, unfortnately no help. They just told me to reinstall it and no support for "networked non-standalone PC" whatever that means.

angeldeb82 Feb 13, 2014 2:54 PM (in response to Martin Schneeberger)I have the same problem. Two days ago, when I installed Internet Explorer Flash Player update on Windows 8 and tried to play any Flash Player games on Facebook, the games would keep freezing before moving again and freezing again! It's annoying!

toussman Feb 19, 2014 6:10 AM (in response to simonator007)Hi,
We are currently preparing the packages for Flash ActiveX and Plugin 12.0.0.44 as well as Shockwave 12.0.9.149 and came across this forum page.
Yet we have not been able to reproduce the issues described above on a Windows 7 SP1 64bit with IE8 and also after upgrading the browser to IE10.
Testing included playing a Facebook Game and watching video content using the Flash player.
If anyone has links of pages causing the issues reported above, please do post them.
Thanks all for sharing your experience.
Manuel
