This just started a few days ago. When I am viewing a user's video collection on Youtube, (for example this page for the National Archives: https://www.youtube.com/user/usnationalarchives/videos ) and I type in a search term next to the magnifying glass to search within that user's videos, the page will load the search results and then immediately before I can click anything it will reload back to the original page, NOT the list of search results! I have to then hit my Back button to go BACK to the search results. This happens every time I do a search, and when searching any user.

I am using the most current version of Firefox.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

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.
