I'm setting up my new (used) iMac, running Lion and the latest version of Firefox. Everything browser-wise is fine, except that when I try to load a video to YouTube it drops my Net connection, every single time!

This did not happen with my previous iMac running Leopard, and I have not found much info on this via Google. Any suggestions / solutions would be most welcome!

I figured it out - had to run FF in "safe" mode with add-ons turned off.
