Google Chrome developers seem to have fixed the YouTube crashing problem!

If you are a user of Google Chrome, you would have noticed that YouTube has been crashing the entire browser session on a regular basis.

Try to close a YouTube tab while the video is playing and bam, it hangs and you have to crash it to close it.

The problem is so widespread that it caused a long discussion on Reddit. And multiple reports were filed on the Chromium bug tracker.

And looks like they have discovered the source of the problem and it has been fixed.

Just amuses us… Google massively highlighted the sandboxed plugin feature when they launched Chrome and even after so much time and so many versions, Adobe Flash Player can easily take down the entire browser! It’s amazingly embarrassing.
