why won't flash video's work on my iBook anymore?

so, previously i didn't have a problem watching flash video on my iBook. whne i say previoulsy i mean that serveral month ago i change the OS to 5.8. how i have problem's somehow relating to the flash players on sites. i don't think it effects YouTube, not that i'm a avid watcher of YouTube. but just to make sure...

...right, yes. YouTube still very functional.

i have scripts (por extension's) but have been switching them off to find out whether this will help. it didn't. so that just left coming here and see if there's anyone out there with simular issues or know what the help is going on and how to fix it.

i should mention the site i've been trying to watch from are; animecrazy.net and kumby.com, jap animation sites. amazing if you like or love that kind of stuff. but not what non of the flash players work 😟

any help would be wonderful, cheers guy's/girls

No, I haven't. I fail to see how testing on multiple computers would help. If someone had the exact same model iBook you have with the same version of the OS and same amount of RAM, that might be informative, but I fail to see how repeated testing with other Intel Macs could help you.

I do think that the sites, themselves, are not reliable. Therefore, any two tests on the same computer are likely to produce different results at different times. That has been true for me, at least.
