something must have been erased as I used to, but with the FF upgrades they no longer play. I can no longer view the videos from Fox News, but can view them when I use IE. I have down loaded and installed Flash player to no avail

Is it that they don't play, or don't load? Is there a player in the window? Do you get any error messages? What is the link you are using? Is there an arrow or something in the player? Try left clicking it.

Your system details list doesn't show that the Shockwave Flash plugin is installed and enabled.

You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.

You can verify on the Adobe Flash Players Test Page that the Flash plugin is working and which version you have.
