Why can't I view youtube anymore?

[jucyberry]

For the past few weeks I haven't been able to watch youtube, that includes links in the papers, and on here. It says I need a browser that supports hdml5..

I'm on internet explorer, I DON'T want google chrome, I don't like google personally, so what is the best thing to do?

I can't even see the Status Quo clip on here..  (any chance to ogle Francis Rossi when he was young is very appreciated)

are you on the latest version of IE?

Firefox is a good alternative to Chrome, if you don't want Chrome but have no option but to leave IE.

You'd prefer to use a Microsoft product than a Google one?  Jesus wept.

Anyway, sounds like you're still on the monstrosity that is Internet Explorer 6.  Upgrade it to IE8 or install Firefox/Chrome and you should be able to view rubbish pop music from the 70/80s to your hearts content!

Laptop was new at xmas, I'm on ie 9.0 aparently so lord knows whats happened.

With google it's just personal preference, just something about it I don't like. I have a slight ocd tendency to want things unchanged as much as possible. Not reasonable, but I can't help it.. don't just want it for the dodgy old vids, I watch anything from cute cats to the ones that most people cant resist..spotty americans..lol..

If I have to I think I would rather go for firefox, boy but I hate change tho.

I can't believe anyone still uses IE at all, it's just a total nightmare. Chrome and Firefox far exceed it in pretty much every week, would definitely recommend an upgrade to a better browser.

Chrome all the way!
