youtube autorun
I have left a youtube video open in a tab. Everytime I refresh, it automatically runs. This has only just started happening. I want to refresh it to see how many views it has had. By the video running it distorts the figures.
I have flashblock installed as an add on
How do I stop it automaticlly playing
Thanks

Current Firefox version use the HTML5 media player on the YouTube site. If Flash Block isn't stopping the playing then you can consider to use the Flash player and set Flash to "Ask to Activate" and block the plugin for YouTube.

Your System Details shows;

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.
You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.
Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac
Then reinstall the latest version.
Flash Player Version 17.0.0.188
