I'm running Firefox 14 with a default setting to Yahoo. All videos that are connected either through a link or directly connected through youtube will not play. I either get a white screen with nothing displayed or a black screen with an error message that says try again later. It doesn't matter if I connect directly from Firefox or from Yahoo. If I open my AOL browser through Explorer it will play all videos.

You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.
