    Your using firefox aren't you?

    Try looking at the same video in Chrome or Explorer. It should help.

    Try deleting the firefox cache and see what happens, also (I know this is obvious) make sure you havn't got a javascript blocking extension such as no script installed which could be blocking youtube

    I get that "you either have javascript turned off or an old version of flash player" message.
    I've uninstalled flash player but can't get it to download properly.
    Anyone got a (idiot proof) link/ how to step-by-step please?
    I posted about this problem before, but it fixed itself briefly and I can't remember how.


    P.S. I see a lot of references to firefox. Is this the Yahoo thingummy and should I use it instead of the google thingummy?

    Thanks in advance....again.

    None of you are on Linux, are you? Youtube doesn't work out of the box on it..

    Thanks, but i've tried to download it several times to no avail. I've uninstalled it also and, as far as I can see, the security settings are right.
    I'm doing/not doing something simple.
