So everytime I'm loading a video on YouTube, it takes a very long time to load (10-15 seconds) and while the video is loading Firefox becomes completely unresponsive. I can't do anything until the video is loaded, and when it takes such a long it becomes annoying.

I have the newest versions of both Firefox and Flash Player.

Does this happen with other browsers as well? If no, maybe an extension is interfering. Here is how you can disable them to test that: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20add-ons#w_how-to-disable-extensions0-personassf-and-plugins
