HI,

Thank you for getting back to me. I logged in on 'Troubleshoot mode' and was able to get access to my Youtube account but without the benefit of add blockers. I can also gain access to my Youtube via Startpage,Bing and Google but again I am plagued with adds. I don't know why I was blocked ???

Hello again,

I'm glad to report that the issue seems to be resolved. Watching video and no adds !!!!.

Youtube is cracking down on the use of adblockers at the moment, so that is probably why you have been experiencing problems.
