With No_script loaded I cannot play anything from YouTube. If I temporarily allow YouTube, the browser aborts - so as I suspected, I do have an issue with Flash again, although I have not re-installed it or changed anything since it was working. This seems to be a recurring problem, I suspect something else on my system is affecting it, but as yet I have not found what it is.
