Answer # 9 the Download link works, all the other options did not, I do not think it is "YouTube" as my other computer on the same link still worked on youtube , finally after 3 days , my problem began after I downloaded a Trail of "MacroMedia Flash 8, it has Flash files for its Learning Videos and some how it diabled my Flash player. Thank you Reply #9, you are a Winner!!

Installing *FullVersion" of Flash Worked, its not a "Youtube" problem, its a corrupt Flash file most likely, Thanks a Billion!

Paul5549, dude it took me 2 seconds to download the flash file, time to get a faster computer or Internet connection!

Daskarzine url was the real deal, worked straight away.

Thank you for a solution!!! I installed Adobe Flash, but youtube still gave me the error about javascript or old flash version.

The full install worked (I recently did a fresh install of Windows XP, and don't recall having this problem before)

Nice forum, I got here from: Google. :cool

Markofkane, Yes i find that most of the time if a program in Windows doesn't work it's a 'Corrupt file' and you have to Reinstall the full version, that Adobe flash download that Youtube directs you to is apparently not a 'Full Version',

But I have JavaScript on, and have the latest flash player. Despite that, I clicked again, receiving the message in Adobe's site: "Macromedia Flash Player was successful installed". Still nothing works....

Bottom line: You need to download and install the latest *full* flash player. I got mine from http://www.softwarepatch.com/internet/flash.html

I'm not sure if this is YouTube's problem (for not recognizing the partial install) or Macromedia's (for not doing a proper partial install), but I had the same problem and now it works great.

Thank you daskarzine. It solved the problem!

hey ppl i have found another solution to solve this problem if any of you have a Anti-Virus like Norton AV etc turn of the Ad Blocking and Popup Blocking then restart your internet browser and try youtube again, this has worked for me and others that still have this annoying problem, give it a try and little bit of feed back would be nice good luck

I've been tearing my hair out with this problem, Google directed me to this forum and thread, I disabled the ad blocking and pop up blocking on Norton and hey presto. You have my eternal gratitude.

nice to hear it mate, Norton can be a pain in the butt at times
