    There seems to be no problems at all, it loads completely fine. I think they fixed it quite fast.

    What exactly happened was that internet pranksters found out that you could implement HTML in the comment field. So they did so and started to mess with YouTube.

    Pop-ups, porn, foul language... you name it!

    It's okay. The net's full of screenshots. Just Google something similar to "YouTube Hacked" and you'll find some interesting results, I promise you!

    A friend of mine which is maintaining a channel on youtube got the javascript exploit and now she can't delete the comments, and the exploiter now posts stupid things (even spamming with websites)

    yeah, I also got the news. It redirects you to a porn site if you click some videos on YouTube. I think they will solve this problem quickly.

    nothing is impossible but for YouTube, it won't be that easy to be hacked.
