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.
A better place to get the Flash player is here:
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
There is no extra crap dumped on you from that page.
As someone who knows about these things, would YOU recommend that
Mozilla Flash Extension over using the (now resident?) HTML5 player.
Sometimes (not always) YouTube Videos (especially music ones) are choppy
and have pauses, etc.
Would I NOT have that with the Mozilla Extension ?
It is not Mozilla Flash, but Adobe Flash, and it is a plugin, not an
extension.
I do not think HTML5 is ready for prime time yet. It still does things
I do not like, like defaulting to the lowest possible resolution.
