    These Newsbot posts with the Youtube videos are making my anti-virus go mental when I open the posts.

    Thats strange - its just an embedded youtube link and its not giving me any trouble - anyone else seeing the same problem

    Does it do the same if you go directly to the video - here is the Jennings one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYa6lB94cC8

    Yes. Seems like my antivirus thinks youtube videos are harmful to my computer. Although, having clicked about, only some videos.

    Further inspection reveals it doesn't like the advertising youtube are using which I believe is dropping tracking cookies on to my machine. Or isn't, as my antivirus is blocking them. It is on yours though.

    You could perhaps install AdBlock.

    Amazing how much better an experience it is using the internet without annoying adverts.
