hello, maybe it's an issue with the protected mode in the flash plugin - you could try if disabling protected mode makes a difference.

for youtube you could activate the html5 player - then most videos can be played back natively without using flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5

I've given up on firefox, I'll use Chrome now, I'm not happy about it but firefox truly sucks bad now! Guess thats what happens when you have to many cooks in the kitchen? Can't believe that I went from loving firefox to truly hating it! You will be hard pressed to get me back, I'm beyond discussed!!!
