So the past few days (i think since the last update) about 5 times out of 10 when I click a link to go to a different page, my browser freezes then pops up with a window saying something like "adobe flash player is unresponsive, if you do not abort scrips your browser may become unresponsive, do you want to abort?" then "no" yes" I hit yes and I move on to the next page I have clicked, but its very annoying. This happening to anyone else?

FIRST ...haha jk....not really.  Anyways, I have two suggestions.    

1.) Google the issue chances are if you are experiencing the issue the other millions of people that use adobe are experiencing it too.

2.) If Google doesn't work try deupdating (downgrading? ...I like deupdating better) to the previous version you had.  IDK if Adobe offers previous versions, but whenever I have a new patch for software come out and it doesn't work, I usually find a torrent that has the previous version of the software.  Unless of course I can get the previous version on the official website of the software.

I think i was being unclear. This ONLY happens when I use NS. When i referred to updates, I meant the NS update that happened a couple of days ago. Sorry.

This issue appears to only be with google chrome, ive been running NS on safari and no issues. I may just need to reinstall chrome/update it.

Does anyone happen to notice any specific ads or anything displayed when this happens? One section of the site more than others etc etc?

Recently whenever I'm watching a video, or looking through the picture section and i go to the bar at the right to take me to another video/pic it goes to this page:

Click for larger image

And the videos are there, for example "5 Questions With Tim McChesney" doesn't work on the side bar but it works just fine on its own page if i go to other lengths to find it.
