   1. go to YouTube, and go to the very bottom, click the link that says "try something new!". Try the "HTML5 VIdeo and now try to watch the video. If it works it is a cause of the Adobe Plugin. After you are done you can disable by going back to the same page.

      If HTML5 doesnt work you can try Safe Mode by holding shift while clicking the Firefox icon and select Safe Mode, and now without HTML5 try to watch the video using adobe. IF it works now it is a extenstion you have installed and try to disable them one at a time by going to about:addons
