No, I have installed Flash, and I keep it up to date.  My problem is not 
YouTube, that was just an example.  I get error messages telling me that 
the web sites are not secure, coincidentally after updating crypto 
packages and Firefox.  I don't believe that YouTube is insecure, hence 
the problem.  Not sending money through PayPal could be a crypto 
problem, too.
