Ok take 2> A 9 year old child was using my computer which is a Dell Dimension E520.In non administrator mode she was watching music clips on you tube and using the(firefox) video download helper in order to save them to the hard drive. Everything was working fine at this stage.She finshed doing what she was doing and turned the computer off. She then turned the computer on and tried to watch you tube again but she could not watch it and you tube said that the java scipt was disabled.I started up the computer in administrator and tried to watch you tube but the java script or flash player would not work for me. Being a basic user I tried reinstall Java threw links that you tube provide with no luck i tried the install java links threw the website mojoflix but had no luck. I then used the synaptic package manager to install and uninstall in the following order > Installed the following> Java-comman javaheper ia32-sun-java5-bin sun-java5-jre still no luck installed Klash sun-java-bin no luck removed gnash Installed ubuntu-restricted-extras for reasons i cant remember (mongoose syndrome) removed ubuntu-restricted-extras removed the following> sun java 5-bin sun java 5-jre sun java 6-bin sun java 6-jre completely removed flash plugin non free completely removed msttcorefots completely removed gstreamer 0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse and gstreamer 0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse non of this solved my problem. I also did terminal installation of java which did not work and the error report was error port 8080 Their was also an error on msttcorefonts, I apologise i cant remember the exacted order of the events, I reserched the file msttcorefonts and thus decided to delete it which i did using the terminal because the synaptic package manager could not delete it. The flash player or java scipt still does not work and it was working fine beforehand. I am also using compiz fusion and it was working fine and was installed months before this problem occurred. Thanks i hope this one helps...
