    I had an issue where I was using firefox and a failed flash message popped up and said a "object" was trying to connect to a website but was not allowed and it said i must enable the flash object to have internet access in order to connect. i didnt allow it but I have no idea what it was (it just said object) or where it originated from. Im hoping it was one of my firefox extensions which ive now disabled. I dont know what else to look for unless it happens again. anyone have any insite what i should do?
