youtube does not load, just shows black blank page using firefoc 3.6.18
this problem suddenly started today. I am on windows xp professional service pack 2. Nothing has changed except that I got a message for upgrading my adobe flash player and I executed the upgrade. The youtube videos work on ie, but I would hate to use ie.

What worked for me was to disable the add-on AdBlockPlus. That was causing the trouble, and once I disabled it and restarted Firefox, YouTube worked fine.
How do I find Tools in Firefox in order to do so?
- Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
- Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.
