I'm running Kubuntu 12.04 with version 11.2.202.238-0precise1 of adobe-flashplugin. On a number of web pages such as http://www.politico.com/multimedia/video/2012/09/webb-hammers-romney-o n-military.html I consistently get that VE_FMS_CONNECT_FAILED error. Retrying the site does not help. I've tried this in Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and konqueror. I believe that bug 3117684 is related to this error, but it's listed as CLOSED.
In the past I did not see this error. I think it started about three months ago.
How can I get past this?
