Is it all the videos or is it one of the ones filmed in Ireland? Try some of the others. If possible make a note of which ones work and which ones don't.

If the latter, it's because David Boyd has disabled the "embed" feature of the video. This means the vid has to be viewed on the Youtube site...you should see a pop up box explaibning this when you click to play the video.

If it's the former, it could be your browser. What happens when you click on a video? Do you find this valuable?

Hi, It,s all the videos, when I click on one I get a new window with the video's details
but a blank square where the video should be,with a tiny emblem in the top left hand corner of it
, Also there's a note at the top of the page telling me that IE6 is not supported
and to try IE8 well I'm running IE8 and I've removed it and reinstalled three times but
still no good.

OK, it could be the security settings. Try this first:- Past this web address into your browser: http://www.youtube.com/user/GuzzistaJoe
and see if you can play the videos on there. If you experience the same problem, then it's your security settings.
I am also told that this site works best with either the Mozilla Firefox or Safari browsers...not sure why...I run Firefox... Do you find this valuable?

Hi , I can watch YouTube on IE8 no problem, But your sugestions got me thinking, In the
past I have had what I call conflicts With Firefox, So I installed Google Chrome its a
basic no frills Browser. And Hey it works, I can now log on go to the Forum, and watch
videos or look at pictures. incidentally MSN explorer would't show them.
I'd like to think I'll get enough time to sort the gremlins in my PC.!!!!!!
