Hi it should play HTML5: VIDEO/AUDIO

If still have issues as no info came regarding what extensions you are running or your video card drivers (if have errors would have been able to help) please try : SAFE MODE

In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:

  • all extensions are disabled (about:addons)
  • default theme is used (no persona)
  • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored (chrome folder)
  • default toolbar layout is used (file: localstore-safe.rdf)
  • Javascript JIT compilers are disabled (prefs: javascript.options.*jit)
  • hardware acceleration is disabled (Options > Advanced > General)
  • plugins are not affected
  • preferences are not affected

TEST''''is issue still there ?

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

It was coming from MSN.com. the advertisements were in HTML5 and froze so content wouldn't load because advertisement didn't play.
