 (The links below might not be safe for work, there is some swearing. It
 happens to be the pages I was looking at when I identified HTTPS
 Everywhere as the trigger.)

 When viewing a specific YouTube video (eg
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzEc3o7pVgo&feature=channel_video_title )
 There is in the bottom right of the video sub-window arrows pointing right
 and down; clicking it makes the video portion of the web page larger (but
 not full screen).  When HTTP Everywhere is enabled, this no longer works.

 When looking at a user page (eg http://www.youtube.com/user/MyHarto ) in
 the upper right portion of the page is an icon of a three by three grid of
 boxes; it changes the page to show all of a user's videos in a grid.  When
 HTTP Everywhere is enabled, this no longer works.

 I am not using any custom rulesets. For both cases, I have NOT enabled the
 YouTube rule, which defaults to off since it's buggy.  I have tried
 turning all of the Google related rules (API, Search, Images, and
 Services) and restarting Firefox, that doesn't help.  Disabling HTTPS
 Everyhwere entirely and restarting Firefox fixes the problem.  I disabled
 all of my other add-ons and re-confirmed both the working and non-working
 cases.

 Firefox 6.0.2
 HTTPS Everywhere 1.0.1
 Linux (Ubuntu 11.04)

 If there is other information I can provide that will help, please let me
 know.
