Comment (by joebt):

 To comment # 3, yes - I've tried to testing the bug for months, but
 haven't been successful.

 Maybe I'm going about it incorrectly, but it's been difficult to reproduce
 getting Flash content on the sites I believe I was on, during the
 __starting timestamps__ of the Flash processes.  I haven't been able to
 tie the processes start times precisely to one specific video xyz.

 But, after closing Flash processes, then reloading pages I __THINK  __were
 loaded around the Flash processes' starting timestamps, they haven't
 restarted Flash - so far.

 Even when I find the Flash processes started recently & I'm positive I was
 on youtube at that time, etc., I haven't been able to "make" Flash start
 again.  There may? be something involved about once I __manually__ close
 the flash processes, it doesn't start again, even for same video that
 caused it to start once??

 I have '''not''' tried closing the browser (after estimating a few pages
 that may have been visited around the  starting time of Flash), to see if
 it would then start Flash again.  If there are other suggestions of how to
 get it to reproduce, please advise.
