youtube - links crash by Jooooeh on 07-29-2011 at 05:41 PM

Hello tharr.

do you know if there's anyway to disable the latest version of msn from automatically opening youtube links in the chat box?

everytime i send/recieve a youtube link in a chat, it will try and open it, then my msn will not respond and die. Obviously i can stop sending links to people, but if contacts send me a youtube link, this gets rather annoying.

im guessing its a flash related problem, ive updated the things i can think of, but hasnt seemed to help..

cheers.

Not sure about this, but since YouTube videos are shared the same way as photos, you could turn off automatically accepting photo sharing requests.  Note that if the other contact sends you anything else (like pasted pictures), you'd have to manually accept the request (clicking the accept option, or pressing Alt+C).  There doesn't seem to be a separate option for video shares...
