Greetings all, This is a very strange problem. I've read the fourms, but none solved my problem.

Youtube videos do not play in Firefox AND in Internet explorer. I have tried, 1)Restarting firefox, Restarting computer 2)Reinstalling firefox. Reindtaling Flash, Shockwave, Java 3)Starting Firefox in Safemode. 4)Checked Firewall of Kaspersky (even disabled it for a short while) 5)Updated all Graphic card drivers, Sound drivers etc. Did a full scan of my PC with Kaspersky Internet 

  Security with latest updates (Scan was done while offline) 
  Kaspersky Version: 14.0.0.4651(g) (latest version to date)

None of them worked. What's wrong? I am sure my PC is fine.

Thanyou all in advance.

If I may ask, currently you have two plug ins installed with the same name but varying versions.

  • Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.3.153
  • Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.2.152

Are these disabled when you experience the video not being available?
