I have this weird problem.
I tried to go to www.youtube.com with Safari and I noticed that the url was changing a couple of times. After that I got the Page Cannot Be Found thing.

But the really weird thing is that firefox CAN got to youtube.com...why?

I've also tried it with different browser and for some reason all the Safari based browsers (Safari, Shiira, Webkit) can't go their, but all the firefox based browsers can (firefox, camino).


PS: I can go directly to the url of a video.

Same here.

Indeed, if you watch the address bar there are an awful lot of redirects with terribly long URLs. It's an error I've encountered on other nasty sites in Safari. Maybe Firefox handles it differently and that's why it's working, or maybe it's something else. Suspect it'll be up and running before long though.
