Youtube and other video streaming websites will not load.
When I try to watch a video on any video streamer (YouTube, BBC iplayer, etc.) the page only partially loads. Mots of the page comes up fine, but the video itself/where the video is usually positioned appears black and doesn't load at all (not even the play.pause bar at the bottom of the video). I have the latest version of flash, and the pages load perfectly fine on other web browsers like IE and Google Chrome, but I can't view YouTube videos through other websites like Facebook when using Firefox.. I have NoScripts, but even when the option "Temporarily allows all scripts" is enabled, the video does not load. No error messages appear.

This can be caused by a recent update to Flash 11.3
