Hi

Can someone just check to see if they can get on to YouTube please? I haven't been able to for 3 days now. Even the videos in google search show up as plain white boxes.

I should point out I'm in the UK.

Thanks

I wonder if it's anything to do with the critisim they've got & bad publicity of late, what with all the bullying videos & whatnot?

It works for me.
Sounds like a problem on your end honestly if you haven't been able to access it for 3 days.

EDIT: reread your post and changed my post accordingly.

Very strange.

I tried to open Firefox to see if it was IE & it just hanged with a 'transfering data from Google' message in the progress bar at the bottom left.

So I restarted IE to come tell you about it & what do you know, Broni's signature is back in full effect & also YouTube is back.

I wonder if it's a conflict?

Access to YouTube actually was down yesterday for most internet users and it is conceivable that some first regained access today:

But it haven't been down for 3 days so this is probably just a coincidence.

But what is the status now? Can you access YouTube from both FF and IE?
