Fire fox should have nothing to do with it. You could uninstall fire fox, install your flash player and then reinstall firefox. A couple of reasons for this problem could be, one, the flash player is from a dodgy site and fire fox is at odds with it, or the second is you have not got the latest version of fire fox. The only thing that should be at odds with the flash player, if there was something wrong is your operating system, not your web browser.

Are you using your school's computer-network, or your employer's computer-network?

If so, then that network may _deliberately_ be blocking access to "time-wasting" sites, such as YouTube and eBay and Twitter and Amazon.
