After updating to FF 8.0 I no longer can view YouTube or any flash websites. I have the most recent Adobe Upgrades for all of the programs they offer. I have all of my add-ons updated.

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

Do you see the Flash plugin in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins and on the about:plugins page (via the location bar)?

What does the Adobe test page say?

Yes I do and all of the tests I've performed are all updated and installed. Also, for some reason I just found out that Yahoo! Mail doesn't work either. So it may not just be flash. I can't compose, reply, or open external links from Yahoo! Mail.
