Youtube problem?

Hey, youtube has been working like all day for me, but now I clicked a link to watch the banjo kazooie video.

Now I just got an error that says "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest flash player. "

I clicked the link to get the lastest flash player, but it said it was already installed. I am still getting this error, Help.

Is JavaScript enabled? You aren't running Firefox in safe mode are you ? (Firefox's safe mode, not Windows's safe mode.)

Yeah because you dont have a real reason to dislike firefox besides being a dumbo. Dumbos dislike browsers irrationally.

At least try using Firefox and see if that fixes the problem.

Why do you dislike Firefox? "I like the way it looks and feels" is no excuse because after a few minutes' worth of tinkering there's virtually no difference.

Also get AdBlock Plus, the most essential plugin in my opinion. Once you start using the internet ad-free you'll wonder why you put up with them for so long.

But if you want to keep using the web the way Billy wants you to that's your decision.

Get NoScript, too. If you don't allow ad sites, you don't see nearly any ads when used with Adblock Plus.

I don't see whats so bad about IE... I've used it, and I've used Firefox (all my school's computers have it) and I just like IE better. Personally I have never had any problems with it. Can someone tell me why Firefox is supposedly so much better than IE?

Not much security holes? Skins? Plug-ins for functionality, support and more security? Tons of options? Always been free? Very original and not all flashy like IE7 is supposed to try to be!

*silence* I still think I'll stick with IE...

I'm set in my ways

IE? seriously firefox is much better, its easier, faster, less ads (ok none), and instead of opening like 2million windows for diffrent pages you get tabs in 1 window, it cuts down a lot on the cpu usage. but then bill always wants you to burn out pc parts that way you have to upgrade to a new version of winedoze to fit your new pc parts
