Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at www.youtube.com. 

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Same here since 145.0 On one of my desktops, I have nightly with no account and no add-ons and youtube works normally. Let me see what happens in Troubleshoot mode...
