Can't view videos on youtube.

Unread post by Akruze » 2011-11-18, 16:21

I can only view videos from youtube when they are embed. Once I go to youtube itself in order to view videos all I see is a black box instead of a video. Refreshing doesn't help.
I have windows 7 64x, I use the Palemoon 8.0 portable version. This problem was also at the 3.6 version (one before the X.27 update). Occured only recently never happened before.

Please make sure you give palemoon-portable.exe full access (outbound and inbound) to the Internet in your firewall.
Also make sure neither Pale Moon nor the plugin container are being "sandboxed" by security software.
