Yeah so my Flash is fucked I guess. When I go to Youtube and watch a video, rather that just automatically starting, the video has a play button on it like an embedded link, like so:

When I click to play it, I get grey static and an error message, like so:

This happens most of the time, but sometimes the videos play just fine. And it only happens in Firefox. I think it's an issue with Flash as a whole, since I seem to be having problems playing videos on some other sites too, and Flash games don't seem to wanna work.

So any ideas? I've tried re-installing Flash and starting Firefox in safe mode, but it hasn't worked.

I get random freezes while playing youtube vids often enough, but it's only been since the latest Firefox update. I think it's just a buggy release that they'll have fixed in the next one.
