Try Chrome.

Chrome I understand does not use the Adobe flash player and uses it's own code. I just checked and my chrome browser is using html5 video on youtube - so even more different. I vaguely recall that I may have selected that many moons ago but I am far from sure.

Glad Rag. What error Msg do you get ? Is there anything happening in your browser ? Are you using some sort of "Parental Control" software perhaps by accident? or an ISP "Nanny Guard" porn/inappropriate content protection filter.

No impuning of your character is intended and I agree about Unix.

Seriously though, I always set FF to ask to activate the flash plugin and in a few cases the prompt does not appear in you tube and all I get is grey noise instead of a you tube clip.
