latest FF is 13.1   Youtube works fine with that.. FF 11.3 users just need to update to a newer version

Mind you I am still on WinXP 

Thanks Olly, I had said Firefox 11.3 and I meant to say Flash 11.3 which is the current version, so I've corrected my post   Windows XP doesn't have the same problem.

ah, you got your flashes mixed up with your foxes

Yes, easily done.

And Firefox has just released another update from version 12 to 13.0.1. It's quite  a change as when you open a new tab, instead of getting a blank page you now get a screen with snapshots of the sites you visit most, and clicking on a snapshot takes you straight to that site.

For more info as to how to use this or how to turn it off if you want:

Me too, Olly

Thanks for the info though, El Loro.

Exactly the prob I have with streaming - sports, i- player and quite often you-tube.

Prob is my lappy didn't accept the latest FF when I tried to download it a good few weeks back.

I'll give it another go and nice to hear that this is a recognized problem.

Cheers El Loro
