Long-winded one for the techies.
Shockwave Flash is continually crashing using Google Chrome. This problem started only yesterday but has become so frequent that listening to music on soundcloud is impossible. Looking around there's a lot of literature over how to sort this widespread problem. However all of it assumes 2 installed versions of Flash are in conflict, so shutting one down will solve the problem.
I don't have 2 versions though - I'm no techie, but I'm not mistaken in following the online instructions (typing 'chrome:plugins' into my browser to view all available plugins). There's definitely only 1 version of Flash - again from looking around not every user prone to this crashing has the 2 suggested plugins. To remedy this I've started to use IE9. Problem with that is, unlike Chrome, I can't skip through a long mix on soundcloud to where I last left it. To catch up on a mix using IE9 there's no option other than to sit through all of what I've already listened to.
If this wasn't the case I'd happily use IE9 for music and Chrome for everything else, but it preventing me from picking up on music where I choose is no gain at all, despite Flash never crashing. So - how do I get Chrome to behave itself please?
