one thing that annoys me on youtube is that it always starts playing the video automatically after opening the video page.
is there a way how to prevent it? i don't see such option in profile settings.

There plenty of greasemonkey scripts available to do this exact thing (search for 'autoplay'). Also, this belongs on Super User.

I'd say it actually belongs on http://webapps.stackexchange.com/ but you can't vote for that!

You can install the flashblock firefox extention. That will prevent anything flash from starting automatically. This works perfectly on youtube, and as a bonus it will get rid of a huge amount of annoying ads with blinking text or whatnot.
