Public bug reported:
If flash-plugin is installed (does not matter if adobe-flashplugin
package or flashplugin-installer or using flash-aid) and enabled then
firefox crashes unexpectedly and very frequently on pages using flash
(adverts, videos, etc.) It's almost impossible to browse the internet.
This bug is very annoying.
The problem popped up after I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04. In the previous
version 10.10 the flash was crashing as well, but not that often.
Firefox version:

The problem seems to be caused by "X_CopyArea: BadMatch" in the flash plugin.
