Help viewing videos please

[vicm2509]

Im not very good with computers at all so here goes....

Every time I try and view a video on youtube, photobucket etc etc I get a message saying "you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player".

I used to be able to view them up until a few months ago when I installed a new printer

I have the new flash player as ive downloaded it about 10 times just to make sure and as far as I can see ive got JavaScript turned on (but if someone could tell me how I could double check Id be grateful

)

I am using Windows XP and Internet Explorer if that means anything to anyone. Please someone help as im sure im missing out on loads of brilliant videos

I'm interested in this too so I live in hope!
I could view them with ME and Firefox but since I've got Vista, some I can see, some I can't and it says no compatible plug ins available! Suppose it could just be a matter of waiting for things to catch up with Vista, ergh!
