This just started happening recently. I've been on YT many times before so someone help me out here.

I go to view a movie and it says:

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

What the fuck does that mean? Javascript?!? Pfft.
Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys?

    i've had this happen to me before. i found that i had to uninstall flash and reinstall it. to uninstall flash, click the link below and run the program.

    And no one sings me lullabyes
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky....

    YouTube doesn't use QuickTime for it's content. Scoll up and read the previous posts.

    Ahh, I see. I was unaware that QuickTime would take the association of that filetype. Sorry for jumping all over you with Flash.

    Another reason why I've always stuck with the QuickTime alternative player!

    Good luck!
