I know of no alternatives.  What's your problem with Flash Player?

Since installing the current version of Adobe Flash Player (AFP), I experience frequent crashes which appear to be caused by AFP. Uninstalling and reinstalling AFP doesn't solve the problem, which is experienced by many other users, as well. Adobe has been unresponsive to this issue. I want to divorce myself from Adobe products (including the grossly bloated Adobe Reader, by the way). Hence, I'm seeking alternatives.

I don't know of any Flash Player alternatives. As for Adobe Reader, try Foxit Reader.

I'm sure most of us have used Flash Player for years without significant problems; I know I have.  Are these other users you're referring to co-workers?
