when i go to the youtube page to watch videos it works fine.

when i go to the youporn page to watch videos it says I need to install a new video player which the itouch wont let me download

I want to get around this because I want to be able to watch whatever video I want from the internet on the ipod not just from youtube.
 
lol - porn site usually install spyware and such before you can access their "content" - might be some applet like java or flash that the safari browser can't use.

One big reason is that YouTube on the iPod Touch/iPhone is not really the same YouTube you visit on a desktop computer. The "portable" version of YouTube downloads .mp4's of the content and not FLV files. YouPorn probably uses FLV files, and to use those, you need flash support which you don't have.

It has been said above, and maybe your post was just a joke, but....

The iPhone / Touch does not have the ability to display flash. Traditionally youtube has been flash based, and I assume the youporn site is the same.

Apple struck a deal with the youtube people a while back to convert the youtube library to mp4 so that youtube worked on the iPhone / Touch.
