Crash: Adobe Flash about/srcdoc communicating with cloudfront.net

To whom it may concern:

Had a fatal error occur on my Apple MacBook operating system OSX 10.7.5 running Safari 6.0.5. Didn't have a problem accessing the site until today, and then BOOM...Adobe Flash Player Security warned me about a potentially unsafe operation [see below]. Couldn't get out of these warnings even by force quitting and hard to hard reset my computer. I figured I needed to update my Flash, so I updated, visit BP again, and the same error occurred on a different page.

Did a little research and cloudfront is amazon's cloud hosting service. Yahoo Answers recommended clearing out the cache and all other files. Wondering if there was a conflict between the new site and old site.

Anyways, I'm back now.

We don't use a CDN of any sort, Cloudfront included. I don't have a system running OSX, so I can't try and reproduce.

Was this your first visit since our changeover? If so, I could definitely see it being a caching issue either on your end, or between you and the site. I'll do some searching.

Is it safe to assume (since you posted) that it's no longer happening? If so, that too would lend credence to the caching issue.

Sorry about that!

It was not my first visit to the site, which makes it stranger. I believe I accessed the site on Wednesday evening with no issues.

I'm back up and running. Just wanted to leave this here in case anyone else experiences something similar.

Now I'm wondering if it was some bad ad code. Only way I can think of that it could be introduced.

Please do let me know if it happens again -- and if it does, a shot of any ads on the page would be very helpful. Thanks, and sorry again.
