    • Download the XPI archive of the Flash Player Plugin http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/xpi/current/flashplayer-win.xpi to your hard disk. XPI archives are only ZIP files containing the files used by the plugins.
    • Extract the files in the archive
    • Copy the files flashplayer.xpt and NPSWF32.dll to %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Plugins\ where %APPDATA% is the folder which holds your applications profiles and settings. (You can open this folder simply choosing "Start → Run → Type in %APPDATA% → OK")
    • Make the Plugins folder if it isn't there.
    • Restart Firefox
    Basically, put the create a "Plugins" folder in into c:\mozilla\ (or in the same folder that "Firefox" is located) and put the above two files into it.

    The above works like a charm, and allows you to watch youtube, if you don't have Flash installed on your system.
