Every time I go to Youtube to watch a video, like the millions of other users do, my (Firefox) browser crashes. I get "this program has performed an illegal operation" and then I have to close the program. I've tried looking at what caused the crash with the details option and I don't know what all that junk means. Can someone that knows programming tell me why it happens?

I copied the stuff from my last crash:

FIREFOX executed an invalid instruction in

module NPSWF32.DLL at 0177:301c079d.

what does all that mean?

I did some research on this. Apparently you are not able to upgrade to FF3 because your OS is outdated

and flash is causing a conflict. They suggested a few options of upgrading the flash player or renaming the

NPSWF32.DLL to NPSWF32.DLLL to null it. Appears it's time to upgrade the old horse .
