Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
UBUNTU 10.10
2 bugs to report, maybe encased in the same problem:
1) BBC iPlayer was working perfectly fine within Firefox (3.6.10) until the second last update for Maverick. Now the BBC website advises to download the new version of Adobe
2) Youtube and most other sites incorporating Flash Player was working on first install of Maverick, however, since second last update unable to access nearly all sites to stream Flash Player content
Ironically, Totem would not play YouTube videos until the second last update on Maverick, now it plays content no problems!

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.
It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:
apport-collect 661918
and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.
Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
