How to disable Shockwave in Chrome

Anduril

Nose down. Throttle up.

I have been to the about plugins page in Chrome, but it doesn't give me an option to disable Shockwave. It just shows that it's enabled. Shockwave will regularly crash while browsing and it's getting pretty annoying!
 
I've only used Chrome a couple times, so no idea. It did crash quite a few times when I was saving NYT crossword puzzles (and I mean hundreds of them in a row).

I don't think SW has ever crashed Firefox, but it rarely ever crashes anyway.

Try a clean uninstall/reinstall of Chrome, then add back in SW (if it's that kind of add-on).
 
Wrench Button->Options->Under the Hood->Content Settings (under Privacy header)->Disable Individual Plugins (under Plug-ins header)->Find "Flash" and click Disable.
