When I go to a youtube video, I just get a black screen with some white dots
in the middle. I have unchecked the popup blocker on the toolbar. What
else do I have to click for this to work?

Steve, try reinstalling (or install the newest virgin of) Adobe Flash
Player. That should fix you right up.

Have you got a URL for that? Can't seem to find the virgin option.

Maybe they're sold out to the AyRabs, what with them wanting 72 of 'em
at a time for each of their shindigs.

Youtube gave me an error with version 10.1. You can check the version
you have in ControlPanelAddorRemovePrograms.

The latest version:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
It installs or updates directly from their site.

The $%^&*?'s wouldn't give me permission to download a standalone
version for an off-line PC, my HDTV recorder which has only essential
processes running, no antivirus etc stealing CPU time.

How to tell:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s...rnals/bb896653

This might work, I haven't tried it yet:
http://www.soft32.com/download_500.html

http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

Try there..

Youtube is in the process (or has possibly completed)
of converting all their videos over to a format
compatible with HTML5, WebM, if memory serves. I've
been trying out Firefox 4RC. Opt-in to the HTML5
trial, and don't worry about flash versions anymore.
