Cant play Youtube videos in vista
I am having major trouble playing Youtube videos in Vista. I used to be able
to play them with no problems, then they just stopped playing and now i cant
get any of them to work at all.

I have unistalled Adobe Flash player with their unistaller program,
reinstalled it and rebooted, a few times. I have also run one of the Adobe
flash player files, by clicking on "Run as adminstrator" as told by the help
section in You tube and Adobe to do.

But still they dont play, i know this might be nothing to do with Vista but
i thought someone out there might be able to help??

Clear out your temporary internet files cache.

Are you using Spywareblaster? I ask because it has an option to disable
flash in IE so maybe you have that option on. If not then it is an activex
issue, or javascipt if you are using Firefox. In IE7 go to
Tools/options/advanced and click on restore advanced settings and/or reset
button. That should fix it.

I have deleted my Internet temp cache and Cookie file before but unfortunatly
it has had no effect at all.

If your using IE7 ... go to tools, add-ons, and make sure flash is enabled.

If you using Firefox, you may need to install Flash from the Mozilla add-on
site.
