I just switched from internet explorer to firefox (finally!). Everything works right, but for some reason

-youtube videos do not work
-the blitz mini site doesn't work.

It says I need to download a program for them to work. They work on Internet explorer, therefore, I must already have it downloaded. It also won't download again.

Where's the problem, how do I fix it? Again, this only occurs with my firefox browser.

I absolutely hate Firefox. I tried it twice and ended up rebooting my PC both times. Be careful with the extras.

You need Adobe Flash Player for it, think its a free download.

Flash is a plugin, which you've already installed into IE.

You just need to install it into Firefox. Go here, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:7 and install Adobe Flash Player. I'd recommend installed Java as well.

To see what add-ons etc. you have currently installed, goto Tools->Addons in FireFox.

I actually installed the InfoLister add-on to give me a list of extensions.

Add-ons I can't live without are:
Adblock Plus
All-in-One Sidebar
Download Statusbar
Extended Statusbar
FlashGot
Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer (If you use two or more computers, this is essential)
Hyperwords
NoScript
Read it Later
Remove It Permanently
Resizeable Textarea (almost essential if you use many forums etc.)
Sxipper
Tab Mix Plus
TagSifter
UrlbarExt

Greasemonkey For RHP scripts and other forum etc. scripts, like:
- Tinfoil Hat to show the actual link behind TinyURLs
- Tubelink to show the YouTube title from a link
- Linkify Plus to turn text links to hyperlinks
- GBAway to remove GB posts (or any other boring users) from RHP forums
