    I am using XP and I was directed by YouTube message which stated the following" Inorder to see any Video's now you must upgrade to the follwing Browser's of you choice"

    Explorer, Google Chrome, Opera etc. I am used to using Internet Explorer, so I upgraded to Explorer 8. Now when I start to view a video it justs opens , but it's just blank with a black Screen. You Tube works with Mozilla Firefox, and all other Explorer's Expcept the Explorer 8. Any help with this issue please Abs

    IE is the slowest, least standards compliant and most insecure browser currently in use. Why not just put it aside and use Firefox, Chrom(ium), Opera, et al?

    Exactly my point; I use Opera and it's sweet.

    It must be a flash player issue.

    here are the instructions from google to work out flash player issue.

    The video won't play : Video Player Issues - YouTube Help

    An I agree with others that IE Sucks.:) Mozilla FireFox has to be the best and it supports almost everything on internet.
