    Alright so with meh new laptop I just got firefox, and when I try to view MOST videos online, it tells me im missing a plugin, but FF cant detect which one it is, Ive got shockwave, flash, and im pretty sure I got like Windows Media Player 11? Im not sure if Ive got the FF Plugin tho, when I went to the FF Video Plugin page, it wanted me to download WMP 11, so i did.. but I still cant view most videos and it pisses me off :censored:

    Search Plug-ins on google and it gives you different sites theres one that gives you all the plug-ins you need, not sure what the site is though, something you'd have to look at.

    maybe try redownloading an older version of firefox then updating it, also download the new version of direct x, flash, ect. The one question is how can you be having trouble with v11, i myself have been using v11 since the day it came out and havent had any trouble viewing videos online. So i dont thinks its that, its most likely something else.

    you can still save your favourites buy just putting bookmarks.html into a diff folder then importing it.

    Maybe you can't play media player because you are missing some .dll file for Media player to work with FF. I had the same problem awhile ago and after i downloaded the .dll file, it works fine for me.
