Recently when firefox was automatically updated to 3.6.15 suddenly videos won't play properly anymore. Vidxden videos used to play really well but now they don't load properly or not at all. All the other videos take forever to load and don't seem to be compatible anymore. I usually go to the same video sites and those don't work like they used to. I've noticed as well that hotmail is really slow and many pages won't load at all including windows live web site. It doesn't appear that 3.6.15 is very compatible with video play or msn sites.

Since automatic update to 3.6.15, I am unable to play videos on abc.com, and even on my News Feed page in Facebook. The error message says the video is being blocked by an ad blocker in my browser. I have not changed my security settings, nor have I updated any other software recently.

By the way, I did check the same videos (at abc.com and on Facebook) with Internet Explorer (same computer) and they played just fine.

I switched to Firefox 4.0. The videos play just fine. I had to go into applications and change from opening pdf files with "Firefox default" to "Acrobat 8.2" so that I could open pdfs on Firefox 4. Other than that, everything is fine -

Annie,

You need to delete that image below your message it reveals far too much information about yourself. Next time take a snapshot of just the video & error message itself. Don't include your facebook page.

I use a mac but if I remember correctly in Windows - hit print screen and then programs - accessories - paint and you can select your print area or save the cropped image..
