Yeah and he seems to have made everyone elses comment red

Edit: I see what your saying now,your right its in the comment

It's a script people are using in YouTube Video comments...

e.g: <script>IF_HTML_FUNCTION?<h1><marquee><font color="red"><u>INSERT TEXT HERE<script>

It stops the page loading past it, and also stops from deleting comments AFAIK.

Edit.. it's worse in IE... haha.

People are saying to avoid YouTube at the moment.

UPDATE: STAY AWAY FROM YOUTUBE. Exploits have been taken further to now steal account details.
UPDATE: I HIGHLY recommend staying away from youtube for the time being. The exploit involves javascript which can be used to give your computer a **** time via browser exploits (this applies for all browsers). Watch youtube videos at your own risk.

YOUTUBE HAS BEEN HAXXXXXED

skriptkiddies everywhere ;(

BloomerzUK · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:04

They put safe mode on the comments now, so by default they are hidden.

Vulcan · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:05

Ha, YouTube is in safety mode.

mjones1 · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:06

J86 · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:16

4chan and ebaumsworld, no doubt.

cm1179 · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:46

i wondered why all the comments had been hidden for the past hour or so

Aedus · 4 Jul 2010 at 15:48

There's still ways to exploit, apparently people are doing the same script in youtube videos names, and uploading them.

Ranek405 · 4 Jul 2010 at 16:18

Haha, scriptkiddies are always fun.

(as long as you don't end up on the receiving end of one of their scripts I guess

)
