YouTube or Adobe Screwed Up? Looks Like Adobe!

Anybody getting this error message when they try to play a video on YouTube:

Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.


Never had this problem before and JavaScript is turned on and the lastest Flash player is installed.

The Youtube videos work fine on my blog pages but not on YouTube page.


Seems this problem has  happened before:

I downloaded directly from the Adobe site the lastest Flash player for those using  Windows and Internet Explorer.

Still does not work.

Same problem on several different computers all using Windows and Internet Explorer.

Guess there is partial install for the download.

Everything worked  fine the day before.

Yep I have the same problem on my laptop for the last week or so!  The stupid thing is if I go and google the the youtube video title it plays fine via the google search results!

news.bbc.co.uk is also broken for me along with a load of other flash video sites.

EDIT:  Seeing your post made me actually get round to fixing it, go here, run the uninstaller and the go to flash.com and reinstall it, all works again.
