Firefox crashes instantly on YouTube videos
I updated Flash Player yesterday to the latest version. Now, Firefox instantly crashes when I play a YouTube video. Videos on vimeo and other sites seem to work fine, but on YouTube it crashes (and the entire window is closed down) within a split second.
I have tried disabling flash player, still crashes. It also crashes in safe mode. Other browsers like Chrome works fine, so I assume the problem must be with Firefox. I've sent in a crash report but I'm also looking for answers to fix this here.

Where did you get your flash or how did you update it?

by the automatic updates from adobe.
Youtube currently uses the HTML5 player.
