I had the same problem here but it already occured with 9.10 for
some weeks. Searching the web I found a thread blaming a cookie
(VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE) from YouTube. Deleting this cookie should solve
the problem but didn't for me. Others say one should upgrade Adobe's
Flashplayer---and that did the trick for me. I installed
adobe-flashplugin, now it works again.
