AdBlock+Youtube=Crash Reload

Post by luck77x »

Hi. I've been using AdBlockPlus for a very long time now. Many years, as far as I can remember, before it was "MainStream". That being said, I've never encountered this issue before.
I've installed AdBlock on K-Meleon and Opera, because I have multiple tasks running under Firefox. I choose to use a different browser. This does not pertain to FireFox. In Opera, and K-Meleon with AdBlock Plus Enabled, if I try to watch a Youtube Video it 1/2 the time does not Load. It'll try to load and repeat itself for the first 3-5 seconds. And then after the 3rd reload attempt I get a Crash inside of Youtube giving me an error and showing T.V snow in the background.

The only way to fix this is to Reload K-Meleon/Opera until it finally wants to work. I've disabled Ad-Block Plus and the videos work....
I've concluded that this may be an attempt by Youtube.com to get the watchers to view their "Before Video" ads. An Attempt to screw with AdBlock.

Please look in to it. Thank you.

I don't think K-Meleon is still being supported.

Which Opera verison do you use?
