Issue with Youtube and Flash Player, videos don't play after a while

When I go to Youtube I can watch videos, but after I've player 5 or 6, when I select the next one, I get a snowy screen with a message "The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback. Get the latest Flash Player".  Issues is I already have the latest Flash Player, and it was playing fine just a minute ago. But from then on I cannot play more videos until I restart the computer. I'm tired of reinstalling Flash every day.

Win 7 64 bits, IE 9 and Firefox (happens with both)

Flash Player 11.7.700.202

Apparently the browser at first recognizes that Flash is installed, but then it doesn't find it anymore. Not sure how that happens.

    Since i updated to 11.7 Youtube doesn't load properly, i can watch videos but the suggestions at the side of those videos dont load, and thumbnails on the homepage don't load. I would downgrade but I don't know how ha ha.
