Since about two weeks CC is not working properly anymore for me. Clusters of chat lines will suddenly come into my screen and then it will be quiet for a long time. same with pm's. I've tried Chrome (default), Firefox and Safari and they all give me the same attitude. I'm on a 2012 Macbook Pro and have Adobe Flash installed.

Anyone else encountering similar issues or having ideas about a possible solution?

Help would be much appreciated!

I've never had that problem..but I stay mostly in the forums. Chrome and FF and IE sometimes crash on here. I know adobe has been having some bugs lately.. Try using the Opera browser. It's what I use. :)

Have you tried other versions of Flash? Chrome has Flash already included right out of the box, but IE and FF require that Flash be updated whenever applicable. Sometimes updates cause more harm than good, though.

Will you stop villainizing EVERY browser other than Opera? Sheesh! :p

Yeah I downloaded Flash yesterday to see if that would help. I notice that when I don't use the camera function, it works better in general. Better as in: slightly less problems.

The weirdest thing is that I have never had any similar issues up until a few weeks back.

Like I said before, Adobe has been having issues with a few bugs in it for a couple months now.. something about a vulnerability for hackers to exploit it or somethin'..

Apparently, chat is going weird, yet again.

Try years. Lol. You're right about the security vulnerability, too. Some people were catching malware simply from watching certain YouTube videos.
