Many thanks for the reply jay2. Downloaded both but no change.
"What browser are you using?" Not sure what a browser is but I assume it is internet explorer.

Anyone with any ideas. One day this was working fine the next nothing. Ive not changed anything.

Regards.

Do you use a firewall like ZoneAlarm that is blocking your cookies/javascript or anything like that? Perhaps an ad blocker?

Cant say i have much IT experience but the link below sorted it. Many thanks for all your help. Feel satisfied I found a solution at Yahoo answers; saves me going to my brother-in-law who does this for a living.

Uninstall your outdated flash player here...

Finally go to youtube and click on the link for the latest flash player
