Version 12.1 is a minor update but introducing some new features.
Most important changes:
- Fix for Flash 11.3 crashing the plugin container or browser upon shutdown.
Note: Flash 11.3 introduces "protected mode", an internal plugin sandbox, that can still cause other issues, e.g. for full-screen video playback. Please check the relevant forum post for more information, workarounds and advice if you experience issues. - Fix for double entries for "recent tags" and "recently bookmarked" in the bookmarks menu on a new profile.
- Fix for build instability issues in javascript due to the Microsoft compiler producing incorrect machine code in some cases. This fix will cause a slight performance loss on 32-bit builds to prevent crashes and scripting problems in the GUI and on web pages. Pale Moon x64 is not affected.
