Firefox keeps crashing whenever I open youtube.
Since today morning my firefox keeps crashing whenever I open youtube site. I am not even able to play any video on youtube. I update my Adobe Flash just in case if that was the solution that every tries to give out :) Still I am having problems. Is there any solution ?
Edit :- Its also affecting if I open FB. Or I think its basically a page only where videos are. Or else it doesnt crash
