Karl may be right... you probably should convert the bug to question, or
remove it as you provide *no* useful information for anyone to assist in
troubleshooting the problem.
So let's start here:
1. From the terminal please provide the output of:
uname -a
locate libflashplayer.so
ls /var/crash
which firefox
Also advise if you are using the standard Ubuntu Gnome desktop or
kubuntu KDE desktop.
2. From your FireFox browser, enter: about:plugins
in the URL bar and provide what you see under "Shockwave Flash".
3. Provide a specific link to the youtube video that crashes your system.
You still haven't provided any information regarding your system.
