Seems odd, do videos play at non-porn sites like YouTube or CNN or something? I don't think it would be an issue with Java unless you accidentally removed some other stuff too. I've never had a problem playing videos without Java, you could perhaps reinstall the browser or something just in case removing java somehow screwed up something.

I can load and play YouTube videos with no problem.
CNN videos don't load. I click on the hot link for a video at CNN, and nothing happens. The video does not load at all.
I go to cnbc.com, click on the hot link (which is an image) to play a video, and the image turns to a black screen, and nothing plays.
But it's not the end of the world. At pay porn sites, even if I can't watch a streaming video, I can still download it, and then watch it. It's not as convenient as being able to first stream it to see if I want to download the video.
I'm guessing that some sites use some kind of hardware/software for videos that my PC is having a conflict with. What is causing the condition is beyond me: I am certainly not technically savvy.
This problem just started a few days ago.
Maybe it will just go away. Or maybe if I try cleaning out my cache it will go away.
But if the problem persists for a while, I will remove all my porn content onto external hard drives, and take the PC in to have it checked by some computer guru. That would be after I tried your suggestion of re-installing my Firefox browser, and maybe whatever else I might try.
But thanks for your suggestion.

Actually, checking some more, some YouTube videos load and play easily.
But there are other YouTube videos that don't load at all.
I've often said that computers were supposed to get easier, less complicated over time. At least for the user.
But in real life, computers can have all kinds of glitches. And that's apart from any malware/virus problems.

I would just reinstall Firefox and update the Flash player, those two things wont take you more than 10 minutes. My guess would be when you removed or disabled Java some other crap got messed up along the way.

I just re-installed Firefox.
And now I can stream videos at X-Art, which I couldn't do before.
I can also stream videos at the Diesel Access sites, which I couldn't do before.
So that seems to fix the problem.
Thanks for the tip.
