while paying back stuttering videos on youtube, I get a message that I must fix the error 107 to speed it up and stop the poor playback. However this message box takes me to 3rd party sellers. And everything I've read says that this is problem with chrome. I do not have chrome, so why do I get the message on mozilla and how do I fix the error 107?

. Whenever you get a message / popup like that;

DO NOT USE ANY OF THE PROVIDED LINKS OR ANY PHONE NUMBERS ! !

Such messages could be Spam that could lead you to Fake Support. Not only can they damage or hack your system, they charge you to do so.

You can report such a site at; Google Report Phishing Page {web link} which is the same when done while on site by going to Help > Report Web Forgery

You may have ad / mal-ware. Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.

That's the first thing I thought of, however, then how do I fix the slow or stuttering , ( not buffering) playback of youtube videos ? I've updated all flash players and adobe. Clean cache, cookies, have lots of memory , but still can not play a video without it sputtering, chopping and jumping.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
  • Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB

Note that YouTube uses the HTML5 media player by default in current Firefox releases and not the Shockwave Flash plugin.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
