Okay, so done.  Now when it tries to play a YT video, I get Adobe's
version of the BSOD that says "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed."

Here are another couple of data points.  If I bring up YT with
Ephiphany, it plays them just fine.  AFAIK, the RC1 64-bit flash
player is the only one on the system.

If I try Konqueror, it reports I don't have a Flash plugin.

Thanks for your patience.

Cheers,

But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to
give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the
hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.
