I always play YouTube at 240p because I pay for the web by the gig. Suddenly they all start playing at 480, I have to "turn it down" to 240 at the beginning of every video. Can't imagine what it cost me before I noticed. I don't close Firefox before every video. Recently cleared cookies and cache . More recently had a power failure.

Separate Security Issue: Update your Flash Player or remove it using these links; Uninstall Flash Player | Windows {web link} Uninstall Flash Player | Mac {web link}

Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version 32.0.0.114

Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with Surfing Protection, can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.

Perhaps clearing the cookies may have deleted a Google cookie that would keep track of user settings at YouTube.
