Is anyone else having this problem? I can't go on YouTube without the browser locking up and actually causing blue screen. I'm about 99% sure it's just related to FF.

I'm using Win7 and have never seen the blue screen until now. Chrome works fine with YouTube and flash videos but Firefox can't even play them now with the new update.

Should've gotten rid of this browser a long time ago and if it weren't for all the extensions I use daily, I'd switch to Chrome.
 


FF started freezing more often recently when several videos are opened, but no blue screens.
edit: Make sure all of your drivers are up to date, especially video card.
 
I am on Win 7 too. FireFox is playing Youtube videos just fine. Never seen the blue screen.
 
Flash player is the cause of 99% problems with your PC/Laptop most of the time. That fucking slow motherfucking piece of shit just slows all your activity.

To solve your issue, try using youtube as HTML5 player.

That was an issue for me, 2-3 years ago, what extensions are using that aren't available or don't have an equivalent for chrome?
 
Same issues for me in FF and Chrome and seems to be getting worse over last 7-10 days. I switch between both browsers daily fighting it. If anybody has a sound solution would love to try.
