I have the latest flash player installed. I even tried to uninstall and install player. Zero effect.

The problem is on site "dirt.ru".

There must be a video on main page, but I see a message. The message is in Russian and in English it sounds like: "Hello! You have a JavaScript disabled or an old version of Adobe Flash Player installed. Download the latest version of Flash player".

But I have already installed the latest version if Flash player. What's with Javascript? I have never disabled it. Is there any way of enabling it? Searching your Q&A yielded no results.

Hello, Page is using Youtube video, so it will work even without Flash plugin. I got same issue when tried with ad blocker. After disabling ad blocker it worked well. If you have tracking protection, uBlock or any other plugin that can block requests to advertisement platforms try to disable them and reload website.

I opened that website and the video was available. So the problem was solved itself :)

But an idea with adblock is great! Try it when similar problem occures next time.
