Nowadays, a news video palyed often ushers in a whole string of other undesired videos. When my cursor hovered over that video window, aBlock sign appear on the top right-hand corner. I clicked on it, thinking that it would block the sream of videos. Instead, that had stopped ALL video AND audio play I can get from the BBC website. How can I unblock this?

Hi, please see under the Permissions tab and check the Flash setting - Firefox Page Info window.

Also if you are using an ad-blocker like Adblock Plus, look at the options/filter preferences.

Incidentally, you have several version of Shockwave Flash - the oldest ones should be removed - how to uninstall Flash if required.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
