I either get a message saying the site is overloaded or I get a message saying that the address will never complete. This makes no sense, as YouTube will work fine in my Safari browser, or start working again when close all my tabs and windows in Firefox and reopen. Please deal with this, it's a real pain. Reproducible: Always
You are running an old version (3.5.9 according to your post). Please update to the latest version (3.6.3) and see if the issue continues.
Try running the Flash uninstaller for your version of OS X, then reinstall the latest version. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html

Yes, this is the bug i would like to report.. After like a 30 minutes or so the mouse seems to have little to no control. If i want to start a clip i have to push the mouse button fast a lot of times then i might be in luck. The weird thing is that ffox was in this state while i opend thunderbird to register for an account here. And there is the weird part, opening thunderb couses ffox to function like it should... thanks for the time you people put in to this very nice browser.
