Here's an explanation of what they're doing. And I think I now get it. It's 
because of so much 'autorun' flash coming through.

I have had Flashblock on my FF for a very long time, so until Youtube started 
running automatically, I hadn't given it much thought. I was blocking because 
of the ads and other content that would just start running and using my data. 

It looks like Adobe has been working on this sandbox for awhile now, starting 
with IE.

I guess I'm not too fussed about this because I only ever allow things to run 
(as best I can) when I want it to. But unfortunately, lots of people hadn't put 
those stops in already.

Still, if anyone finds a FF app to handle this safely and still access video 
content, I'd appreciate the advice.

fill in the space between here and there? It's yours. Seize your space.
