Up to about 3 weeks ago, my son had no problem viewing videos on YouTube on a non-administrator account.

Suddenly, about 3 weeks ago, his ability to view videos on the site has seriously degraded, I'm not sure or aware of any new software added to the computer, the YouTube site works fine on my account, but not on his.

Does anyone have any idea on this, or what to look for?

Thanks,
Junior

Some YouTube Videos have restrictions depending on the content. Even my own 18+ account still requires for me to confirm.

Also make sure any parental control settings are setup to allow the entire YouTube site. Vista's controls can be a bit aggressive so if you have them enabled or to check the status just type "Parental Controls" in to the start menu or control panel search bar.
