Probably the official Chrome browser with Google's ongoing flash support and baked in flash player is the best bet for flash sites on certain AMD systems.
Thanks Graham. I've tried Chrome as well and its the same situation. It works okay on 11.4 with the same version of Flash.
Did you try Chrome or Chromium? They are different. Chrome is Google's binary release, and Chromium is the open source edition. http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/ChromiumBrowserVsGoogleChrome
Chrome has the non-free Flash rolled in, and Chromium will use whatever Flash is installed on your system (ie, the exact same Flash that is crashing on your computer).

Only tried Chrome, Opera, Firefox and Konq - all results the same. I've even downgraded flash to the verion on the 11.4 repos.
OK... but the point being here is if you installed *Chromium* from the openSUSE repositories... you aren't getting anything different with Flash... all the browsers you tried from teh openSUSE repos are all using the version of Flash that is crashing on you. What is being suggested here is to install the *Chrome* browser... which you have to DL separately from Google - you cannnot install it from the openSUSE repositories. Chromium in the repos does not have the non-free Flash rolled into the browser.
