Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.
|
I have updated the flash player two times and uninstalled it and installed again and nothing seems to work.
Java has also been reinstalled and nothing.
The same Happens in Firefox and IE. I am using firefox as my main explorer
Any advice please.

Re: Java problems
Are you using any kind of ad/script blocking extensions or software?

Seriously though, that's probably the answer. Check its logs & you'll probably see that it's blocking somthing on Youtube.

Re: Java problems
Have you made sure you've got the latest version of Java? Then again, I could be getting Java & Javascript mixed up.

Re: Java problems
java and javascript are completely different - re-installing java won't help your javascript issues

Re: Java problems
So it was the dreaded N-word after all, eh?
You have re-enabled XP's firewall, haven't you? You don't want to leave your machine wide-open.
