    LATELY, I am having problem with Macromedia Flash Player in IE . I can't play any "flash video" from youtube.com using IE. This problem started after I deleted all the objects in the "view objects" from IE tools (tool -> internet options -> general tab -> setting button -> view objects button).
    Everytime I go to youtube.com, it displays the following msg: "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player."
    I appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.

    PS: Firefox does not have any problem playing flash video in youtube.com.

    I would try reinstalling the flash plugin. You may have unintentionally deleted the plugin. I believe you can do so by going to macromedia's website...that or go to the MS site and look for internet explorer plugins.
