    You can switch YouTube to use the HTML 5 player by default. Guide here: http://www.youtube.com/html5?gl=GB&hl=en-GB

    As for the other site, maybe it's badly coded? Yes Flash isn't the most reliable platform but if it crashes that badly I'd be just as inclined to blame that particular site.

    I assume you're running the latest version of Flash player? What about trying a different browser for this site - Firefox/Chrome.

    I'd also recommend you keep as few videos open at the same time and close tabs when you're done - if I try to have a few Flash player windows open at once I'm guaranteed a crash...
