Hey y'all, it seems like I've come across two problems.

First off is that - YouTube videos are barely loading for me on my computer. If I use it on my iPod, there's no problem. I don't have anything in my history/cache/cookies to delete, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

Secondly, is that I guess when my computer randomly shut off yesterday, it updated my Firefox. But now, when I try to open a link from Skype (or anywhere else), it opens in a new window, and not in my current window. I browse with Private Browsing on, so I'm not sure if that could be it or what.

If anyone has answers, it would really be aweshum! Thanks in advance! :D

Private Browsing is a little strange when it comes to opening links. So, I would say it will open links in another window rather than a tab and that is just something coded in Firefox. Whether it is a bug or it's intentional, who knows.

For the first issue: try the HTML5 version of YouTube. It's a beta thing, though, enable it here (https://www.youtube.com/html5).

For the second issue, just configure Firefox to delete everything on close(I thought that was a setting somewhere, or was that Konqueror?), and don't use private browsing.

Did both of these, and so far it seems to be working! Thank you Thomas (and Jordan)! :D

I guess since that my issues are solved, mods feel free to lock.
