Hi, Firefox crashes every time I watch something on Youtube (I noticed that the problem is connected to Adobe Flash). Maybe I don't have some program because I re-booted the computer, and before the boot everything was fine. I have Windows XP 32 bit.

Hi Near,

Have you looked at our Youtube troubleshooting section or our Flash plugin guides? There is a lot of good information in there.

Hopefully this helps!

Well, first thanks for the quik response. I didn't find it because Firefox isn't really crashing but it blocks. If I open a youtue video (on youtube page) and quickly open a new window with another page I can listen to the song but when I click on tthe youtube page... Block! ( I can watch youtube's video on social networks!)

Sorry if I used "crash" instead of "block".
