Jan,

Don't know if this will help, or not, but give it a try. If it doesn't correct the problem you can always change it back.

In FF browser click on Tools, then Add-ons, go to plugins, find OpenH264 Video Codec..., in drop down window click on "Never Activate" and then click Options and turn "off" automatic updates.

Let me know if this helps.
