All of sudden youtube vids wont work. I get the:

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

error.

I have the latest flash and I have checked the settings, but still wont work. I presume its a setting or something I'm overlooking.

Any suggestions?

do you get the same error code for "youporn"

That is a great idea Jeff, I will go and "test" it now.  

Yep works, as does google video.

Turned off windows firewall, still no dice!

At the moment, all I can watch is your poorly produced efforts on google video.  

While I'm on about internet woes. Were with sky, been pretty good up until a couple of weeks ago. Its started dying every 10 to 20 minutes or so. It'll go off for between a minute and 5 minutes, then be fine for another 10-20 minutes, then die again. Anyone experinced this?

You want a firewire cable (IEEE 1394) and a port on the laptop to support it. You can use the USB cable but the firewire does seem a canny bit better, plus you can control the camera from the PC when you use it. That IT wizard JeffC was the 1st to use firewire I believe out the bishop crew, didn't realise there'd be much difference until I tried it myself.

For editing I use moviemaker which comes with windows. There is better software out there, but moviemaker does the job for what I want to use. I will probably get some better software at some point, but I'm not busting a gut to get it.

Only problem with moviemaker is the max speed it downloads movies is 2.1mbps I think. For better quality you'll need to find some seperate software. I've started using Pinnacles Instant Cinema which is some software that came with my cd burner drive. I could probs do you a copy if your burner doesn't come with it.
