Just about to give up on IE6

I love to listen to music and lately I have discovered the wonders of
YouTube,problem is,IE6 very,very frequently gives me the message:Sorry,this
is not available anymore.
Now,I downloaded Firefox and I can see All of these supposedly "unavailable"
videos!
I have the latest windows updates and my settings back to Default,to no
avail......

Any tips appreciated,thanks!

Alberto

Use Firefox and forget about IE.

In IE7 (IE6 is not in Vista) Tools => Options => Connections tab => Lan
Settings

Make sure there are no check marks in any boxes. Note: this assumes you are
on a home network not using a proxy server. Some AV programs also change
these settings.

You're using Outlook Express to post. Neither that nor IE6 come with
Vista. Are you sure you don't belong in an XP group?

I just realized I wrote this message in the wrong newsgroup,sorry about that
and thanks for the prompt responses!
