Since he said "outlook" I suspect Microsoft just doesn't play well with firefox or the brand of flash you are using. Who said outlook? If it was in one of Harry's links, I generally don't open them. John mentioned using Outlook. I don't know anyone else who uses it. |

No surprise. I've never been able to figure out why he has problems with Firefox. I've used it exclusively for years on XP, Vista, Win 7 and occasionally on a Win 8 computer. My wife uses it on her iMac as well. Never had any issues or problems with browsing or viewing videos. It has to be something in how he has it set up or possibly missing a required Flash driver. Don't feel bad, I've not either. If I have Firefox as my default browser and click on a link here or in Outlook or any place which requires Firefox to open, then the video will not play. I'll get a Flash Drive error window. Sometimes that error window will keep popping up until I shut down the program with Task Manager. If I have Firefox opened and click on a link or paste a video URL in the window, everything operates just fine. So, I use Internet Explorer as the default. But if just using the browser, then I'll open and use Firefox. Strange. It may be a setting somewhere, but damn if I can figure it out. Shockwave plug in. There are two types. You need both. The Firefox Help website can instruct. Been there and don't that, but not since I've installed Malwarebytes. That may have caught a bad line somewhere. Will try it again.

I use Firefox (with Win 7) most of the time but certain videos will not play unless I switch to Internet Explorer. Could be, I suppose. I have "Ad-Block" running and I use AVG for anti-virus. Once in a while a site with a video will detect that Ad-Block is enabled and running and will prevent the video from playing. If I really want to see it I can do a one time "allow" in the Ad-Block setting, put up with the advertisement and then see the video. I think it would do the same in Internet Explorer as well (if you are using Ad-Block). It only happens once in a great while though. Most of the time I can view any of the videos (minus the ads) with no problem. Does Ad-Block prevent the ads that begin with many of the YouTube videos? -- Guns don't cause problems.
