FYI: Deja Vue ... Today's 146 app update broke flashplayer

[GreyGeek]

Today's update included an update to FireFox, which I was running at the time while the update was going on. I was browsing CNN and watching some videos when I got the notification to reboot FireFox. After the reboot CNN said my browser didn't have the ability to play the videos.

I used the same solution that I used when this happened a week or so ago, reinstall the ALL the apps associated with flashplayer.

Restarted FireFox 3.5.3 and the videos are playing again.
