Shockwave crashing

That happened to me yesterday. I've been having a lot of issues with my 2011 MBP 15", though, so I don't really know what caused the Shockwave crashing.
I couldn't get a single video to load until I rebooted my MBP - I tried Chrome/FFox/Safari, and none of them would work.

Yup, in Chrome and Firefox which are my two main browsers. Crashes a lot. Have to quit out and reload.
And it's been happening to me in Chrome. That's pretty much my only browser. Any clue what the deal is?
Unfortunately I'm not sure. I posted about this a week ago. I did a clean install of Chrome, deleting the old plist too. No go. I think it has soemthing to do with the graphics switching as I've noticed when it switches while Chrome is up, then sometime later youtube will not load properly. In Chrome it just doesn't load the video and you see "through" the area while in FireFox it just downright stops working and I force quit or wait it out and let it crash.
Yup, it happens when the graphics switches. Use gfxCardStatus and try it yourself. It occurs on the 2010 and 2011 15" and 17" models.
