As of 2 days ago, can no longer open videos but instead get message "this video no longer available". However, if I use Internet Explorer I am able to open the video. Perhaps something changed in my security settings?

I have installed Firefox 6.0.

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.

  • Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

You can also try to update the WMP plugin if that player is used.
