YouTube videos just stopped working. How to fix it!

YouTube videos just stopped working on my laptop today.

The YouTube website is opening up fine, embedded videos on blogs are working okay.

But when I click on a video on YouTube website, the video just wouldn't run.

This is the error message the site gave me:

"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player."

Then, I started Googling for ways to turn on Javascript, and download the latest Flash Player version. But none of that worked.

I have found a temporary solution on a messageboard on Adobe.com. Here's the thread.

What you have to do is turn OFF 'Ad Blocking' on your computer. How do you do that?

Open up Norton Antivirus. Click on Norton Internet Security. Turn off the Ad Blocking feature in it.

Now, go back to the YouTube site. Your videos should work now!
