HULU and FIREFOX
I can no longer play HULU movies when I connect to the HULU website using FIREFOX. It's not my computer because the movies will play if I connect using a different browser.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?
While you are in safe mode;
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Thank you, Fred, but, I tried all of this and still can't play the movies if I access HULU through FIREFOX. It was working fine before and then stopped. Now must use another browser to access HULU, and I don't like that.
I called for more help.
Do you see messages in the Web Console related to playing media files ?
