I read in several places that Flash Player is
dangerous as it can allow
Viruses and Trojans
into your system.
I went to Mozilla.org then this;
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-flash-player/
Is this safe to use on SM 2.33.1 ? Using XP.
Please eschew comments on XP !
Why do all these say they are for YouTube ?
Do they work only on YouTube and nothing else ?
Danke, danke.

That is not Flash Player. It's an extension
specifically designed to force You Tube to deliver
videos using Flash rather than HTML5.
If you need the Flash Player/plugin go
download/install it from:
<https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/>
Remember to UNcheck the McAfee Optional offer.
OK....I read about that, but don't understand
Flash from HTML5 (or a hole in the ground!).
I just ran
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp0BjFl-a1Y and
right clicked it.
A menu says 'about HTML5 player' at the bottom.
So I have an HTML5 resident player ?
Where did THAT come from !?
I get many web sites that have a big brown (?)
square and a message that says I need to download
a player. Of course I don't click on the download
link - fishing for me to download a Trojan or
Maleware ?
Somehow YouTube now works? I have no idea why,
since I did not download anything to play it - I
THINK !
I am guessing that I do not have any control over
what SM is doing !
