Finally an answer that works. Runnin 9.0.47.0 now and it seems to be ok.
I got the version 9.0.47.0 at the "Archived Flash Players available for
testing purposes" page:

Extracted the .47 version and (after uninstalling all flash) ran the windows
installer. Seems to work fine in Firefox now.
I've chaged settings to keep Flash from updating unless I okay it Change your
flash settings by means of the following page:

Agreed, except it's only cause trouble for me with Firefox, which is about 1/5
of the market (about a third in Europe), so it seems like it would be
thoroughly tested in Firefox.
Anyway thanks ShanCan. I won't upgrade Flash until absolutely necessary unless
they explicitly say they've fixed this issue.
Oh, there is probably some security issue with version 9.0.47.0, so use it at
your own risk.
I had the same problem with my Opera since a while and after applying the old Flash Version everything works like a charm!
Thx a lot for the help! Thaught this frakin`problem would kill me lol!!
Have a great day!
