So this has never happened to me before, and I'm hoping to get some help here. For the past hour or so, Firefox has been crashing on me whenever I go to YouTube. It's never done this to me before and I'm just wondering what might be causing this (something off YouTube maybe?). Here's the details from the Crash Report:
Add-ons: {20a82645-c095-46ed-80e3-08825760534b}:1.1,{972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd}:3.6

Yes it is caused due to a bug in adobe flash player.

Then install it again.

Switch to Safari. Or update your flash, either one :P

No it is due to a security vulnerability in flash player which has been now rectified.

I use google chrome after FireFox failed me in my bookmarks and history issue.
I have Opera as a reserve material, never had Safari.

Firefox is pretty good but is still slow when compared to Chrome. I am also using Google Chrome now. In fact I am using their Beta version which comes with the power of Extensions! Many popular Firefox plugins/extensions have been ported over to Chrome. :)

FireFox is good but it is heavy at times, especially the start up.
GoogleChrome seems like a flash game.
So, Google Chrome Beta allows us to use all those nice plugin tools that are just made for FireFox?

Firefox.. I never liked it. It is faster than Safari though which I like.
I use Google Chrome because it is, in my opinion, the best out of all of them.
