I can play no videos on one computer in firefox. The other computer is fine. I have checked all downloads and plug ins and all are updated. This is happening to all videos...from newsfeeds, youtube, and web sites. Any guidance is appreciated. Since games load and play fine, flash is working.

Make sure that you allow the plugin-container.ex program in the firewall.

You may also need to install the new WMP plugin (you have the old plugin npdsplay.dll)
