Yesterday or the day before, I tried going onto YouTube using Firefox, as I usually do, and this happened (see attached image). I tried clearing the cache and cookies, and restarted my whole computer, and nothing changed. Firefox loads all other websites I frequently use just fine, and Chrome works just fine with YouTube, but for some reason, Firefox and YT are not mixing right now. Anyone have any suggestions?

What is your computer system and Firefox? What happens when you try?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Safe Mode appears to have resolved it. I wonder if it is a problem with one of my add-ons?

Figured out that it was AdblockPlus that was causing it. I wonder how to fix that. I want to keep using ad blockers, but not if it makes YouTube act like shit.

Load the web page. After the page is loaded, click the down arrow next to the AdBlock icon. Now select Disable on <web site>.
