Whenever I go to a website that has a video (engadget.com) I receive the following error 'OBJECT tag removed EMBED tag removed' yet I do not have this problem when using IE or Google Chrome. Usually I can watch videos on Hulu.com and Youtube.com but now Youtube is no longe working. I now get a black screen with the message 'EMBED tag removed'. This is VERY annoying because I really prefer using Firefox over IE. I've searched on this forum as well as online and have yet to come across a solution. I don't have Adblocker installed, I tried safe mode, I deleted all my cookies & it still does not work. Please someone, anyone HELP!

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I've tried that AND I've followed the directions on the link but I still get the same results. The 'OBJECT tag removed EMBED tag removed' error message I get when trying to view videos on engadget.com I didn't expect to change but the 'EMBED tag removed' message that I'm getting on youtube.com is confusing. That changed happened in a matter of minutes. I successfully watch a video on there, I went to another website (woot.com I believe), I went back to youtube to watch something else and now every video up there shows me the same black screen with 'EMBED tag removed' on the top. I didn't make any changes or downloaded anything nor did I update anything. Is it possible youtube made a change on their end? I've been searching solutions since yesterday and nothing is working, I'd REALLY hate to have to go back to IE but I'm not seeing any other solution.
