I am getting following the errors when trying to view embedded videos:

CNN: "This browser does not allow you to watch this video" Twitter: "The media could not be played" Fox News, ABC News: Nothing, just a blank black viewer. YouTube: "Your browser does not currently recognise any of the video formats available" followed bu a link that reads, "Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML 5 video".

I am using FF ESR 52.3.0 (32 bit).

Separate Security Issue: Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version: Version 26.0.0.151
