I like to watch youTube videos and Netflix videos while working/playing/surfing. Youtube is Flash and Netlix is silverlight. I have two Monitors on my Windows 7 box, how can I do full screen YouTube or Netflix while working on the other monitor?

Move the Silverlight window to your second monitor & hit full screen, it will go on fullscreen for that monitor.

As for Flash, it doesn't support full screen in one monitor only, atleast not officially.

I have not tried this but maybe you could:

  1. Set up a virtual machine on your computer like Virtual Box
  2. Set your the virtual machine to full screen
  3. Run your YouTube or netflix videos in the virtual machine
  4. Work on your other computer.
