before i updated I could play flash games and videos straight off my computer, but after I updated it will try to download them again. I've tried to change it in my tools/options/applications but it doesn't have the option to use the plugin only just ask or download.

Hi mirros- It sounds like you have a Flash issue. There is a great article on troubleshooting and testing Flash inside of Firefox, so you can get games & videos working again. Here it is:

I hope that helps!
