YouTube says there is an "Authorization Error" when I try to get on the site with Firefox. Can I fix this?
When I try to get onto YouTube, the site is completely white with the words "Authorization Error" in the top left corner. For a while, all I had to do was reload YouTube and it was fine. Now it just won't work at all. I have Internet Explorer on my computer as well and YouTube works fine on there. When this error occurs, the icon in the address bar changes back to YouTube's old icon.
I have tried: -Updating Firefox -Restarting the computer -Closing and re-opening Firefox -Typing https instead of http before the address -Googling and clicking Google's link to the site (yes, a feeble attempt, I know)
Does anyone know what I can do to get YouTube back on my favorite browser? I'd like to stop having to run to Internet Explorer to use this site.
Thanks!

I figured out what was wrong. The internet security was blocking it without letting me know. Thank you for the help =)

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Okay, I tried both of those, and it's still not working.
Please also try signing out from YouTube completely in Internet Explorer before signing in from Firefox.
