Flash Videos won't play, or continuously load forever.

I've seen so many questions about this over the internet asked many different ways and has been offered many different solutions that I've tried, but never can seem to find a solution!

The problem is with flash videos not working in Firefox. The problem was originally isolated to just FF, but has now become universal to my other browsers (Explorer and Chrome).

I can view videos on YouTube and various other sites just fine, however, other websites for school that require you to watch a video and respond to questions, simply load the video forever and don't play anything until the video has completely loaded, or simply play the sound but display a "frozen" thumbnail still frame.

I've done everything, ranging from updating FF and Explorer, Adobe Flash (ActiveX and the Plugin version), updated Windows 7, "reset" FF, started FF in "safe mode", uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash Player and Shockwave, uninstalled and reinstalled FF, cleaned the cache and scanned the registry.

There has been two instances where the video played, but that was short lived. The situation quickly reverted back to loading forever or playing sound only with the still frame.

The problem has been going on since maybe March 2013.

Might help to know I am running Windows 7, 64 bit, and I am fully updated on all programs and plugins.

Solved.

Not sure what it was, but went thru the entire list in each tab of "msconfig" and disabled all except for AVG Firewall, Adobe, and anything MS related.

Works fine now.

Thanks!

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Nice! That worked; I was able to view embedded videos on those same sites. Does this indicate a program is conflicting with the functionality of Adobe Flash Player?

It is possible that your security software is blocking them or maybe is scanning the content.

Had nothing to do with my firewall (AVG). Sorry, I forgot to mention that I had already tried that. Problem already solved! =)

Problem solved! I downloaded and installed Firefox 24.0 Beta. Apparently Mozilla programming team made all the right changes in the new release. Now all videos starting working on Yahoo and BBC.
