Anybody else having trouble getting YouTube to open today (Mon., Aug. 27)?
I can't get it to open in either Firefox or IE.

Something appears to be amiss with the website. It is not loading for me at this moment. Could be a severed optic cable, a DDoS attack, excessive amount of people trying to view one new popular posting, or a hiccup in their server equipment.
Try again later.

Posted 27 Aug 2007 8:45 pm Beware of links supposedly to YouTube in spam emails

There is a new variant of the Storm Trojan that tries to fool people into clicking on links that purport to go to YouTube videos. In fact, they go to Storm Trojan infected computers where you get infected. Hovering over these links without clicking on them will reveal a numeric IP address, which is your confirmation that this came from a Zombie BotNet computer.
