How about these sites:

firefox -debug 

shows 

*** NSPlugin Viewer  *** ERROR: NPN_ReleaseObject() invoke: Message type 
invalid
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPP_WriteReady() invoke: Message type 
invalid
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPP_Write() invoke: Message type invalid
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPP_DestroyStream() invoke: Message type 
invalid

(firefox:27316): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_hash_table_remove_internal: assertion

*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPP_URLNotify() invoke: Connection reset 
by peer
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject 0xad42ff0 is not valid!
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject 0xad42ff0 is not valid!

and it goes on and on.


Is the bug/configuration problem with nspluginwrapper rather than flash?

I ran mozilla-plugin-conf -v and I got a bunch of FAILs, many (if not all) 
of which have to do with totem or some totem libraries.
