I used 2 play you tube vids fine in firefox. I then got an unwanted "Jixey" installed and went to safe mode and set defaults and got rid of Jixey. Now no matter what i do i can't play you tube videos. It keeps prompting me to download latest version of adobe flash player which i do. It tells me download cannot continue until i close firefox which i do. Adobe flash is downloaded but i still cannot play you tube videos. You tube vids play fine in explorer. Any suggestions???????????

IE uses an ActiveX control to handle Flash objects.
Firefox uses a different NPAPI plugin.

You can visit the Adobe welcome and test page to verify if the installation is successful.
