I have flash installed and all YouTube video's will not load. In their place there is a black box when I right click on this box it says "movie not loaded..." and "about adobe flash player." All other flash related video's load fine it seems to be a problem only with YouTube. This problem persists into Google Chrome but not Internet Explorer.

This has been reported many times over the past 24 hours and if the solution hasn't been posted yet, one short-term workaround is to change from a regular session to a secure session.

Click in the URL and insert an s after http. In other words:

http://www.youtube.com/ ==> https://www.youtube.com/

Thanks, that works. I'll use that for now.
