[nabs-l] Trouble with Google Chrome

Fri Aug 5 17:47:43 UTC 2011

Hi everyone,

I have the same problem when using YouTube with Internet Explorer. I
have Adobe Flash Player, but it still says I need to download it. I
did click on the link it provided to download once, went on the site,
and it said that the latest version of Flash Player didn't support
64-bit browsers, like the version of IE I have with Windows 7. Does
this mean that I can't play YouTube videos anymore, or is there an
alternative way? By the way, I'm using YourTube, the newest accessible
YouTube I know of. The link is www.povidi.com/yourtube. I'm also using
JAWS 12 with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 64-bit.
