Both youtube and Limewire won't work for me anymore and I don't know why. I downloaded both recent Java and Flash downloads. What can the problem be?

I had the same problem just now!
My solution: choose any video, press ctrl+F5 on your keyboard and magic!
Hope it helps as it worked for me ;)
just tried that it didn't work
I understand your frustration everybody!! I was almost relived when I found this thread as I now know I am not the only one to experience this annoying problem....I don't know what to do.....sometime s youtube works fine.....someti mes the dreaded message 'Flash player, Java script turned of' appears and I cannot watch anything....I Have the latest flash player, Java is ON...what can I do?? I have tried to deactivate the Firewall...noth ing.....reinsta lled Flash 2 or 3 times.....I am reticent to use the de bug ( what is it exactly) and not sure about the patch.....they semed to have worked for some of you but not all......and knowing my luck it would not work for me..I really would like to get a straight answer from Youtube....does them problem come from them? but it seems almost impossible to contact them.....lookin g at the dates of this thread it has been going on a long time !! have there been any developments this month??
i have had exactaly the same problem i done everything and i am just fed up with it people should be able to complain about this kind of problem to youtube but you can't!
For me, It's as if the videos are picking random days to play, because on somedays, I can watch a video, but on another, It wont work. I have no idea what the problem is, but I can tell you one thing,
ITS F*CKING PISSING ME OFF!!
PS. the Wii still works :P
Still the same for me here as well. Tried it all. Even my techie friends are at a loss. Sudden loss of YouTube is still a puzzle. I give it a hopeful try from time to time, but no luck. I bought a small ASUS EEE a few weeks ago with Linux and Firefox. I have no problem with YouTube on it. I would prefer to access it on my 22 inch monitor rather than the 7 inch ASUS screen, but I'm happy with what I can get. I'm going to keep checking here on this forum. Surely, it will be solved. I agree, too, that it's frustrating not to be able to contact YouTube.
so. after failing at all other suggestions.. except once the f5+ctrl option worked.. i read somewhere else that YOU HAVE TO DISABLE THE GOOGLE WEB ACCELERATOR. so i did. now whenever i come across a youtube video it still has the pretext of 'javascript and flash player' bull but the video works anyway, both in standard and in high quality. fkn thank god. : )
Thanks so much I had tried everything, but you're suggestion worked, I have an old version of Norton 2003 which I update every year. For those looking for Ad Blocker just double click on the firewall symbol and it will come up with the menu and you can then see Ad Blocker and turn it off temporarily. I'm now going to see if Facebook works because that has been giving me similar problems.
Thanks once again.
It worked! I had been completely turning off Norton which is current. That only worked to watch videos I had saved to favorites at YouTube. I tried turning off only "ad blocking" and now YouTube is totally back in action after all these months! Can't believe it. I will still continue to look in here to see what's happening and if there are changes. Thanks everyone.
i cant find anywere to turn off this ad blocking things , please help , i went to the firewall and cant find anything if it helps i have vista so maybe its differnt
As far as I can tell yes. I went to Java and flash media and downloaded the most recent ones. How do I make sure my javascript is turned on? My Limewire did start to work though YouTube still isn't playing videos and still has same error message that either my java script is off or I need the new flash macromedia player. I have the new flash. I'm at my wits end.
does anyone know how i turn off ad blocker on vista??

Thanks for reading my first post. This is a major problem. We took our computer to get a new hard drive and everything was still intact on the new one. The only thing was that I went to Youtube and the videos weren't playing. Then, MSN and other sites had no advertisements, when they usually do. Finally, I tried to download an Adobe update, and it failed to do so. I'm running Windows XP and Internet Explorer. What do I do! Help me!

I've been banging my head against an interaction between a table and float element.
I want the two of them to together take up 100% of the width of their container. If the table cells' content were to wrap around the float, even better, but that's not necessary.
However, I'm continuously running into two issues:
1.) If I make my table 100%, it writes over the float: right for tables where the content text is long enough.
2.) If I...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
