Yes, just watched this one on a friend's facebook page:
I can watch it when it is embedded on Facebook, but not when it is embedded on A2K.
Same goes for youtubes posted on Huffington Post. I can watch them there, but have to click on the link to watch them if they are embedded here on A2K.
I'm wondering if it is something to do with McAfee. They've been updating their various flavors of software for about a week now. Every day there has been a new update for either the Security Center, the firewall, the anti-virus or the spam blocker. I've checked all the settings available on each of them to see if the updates turned on or off something that would block A2K's video embedding but don't see anything that pops out at me.
Am interested in hearing from fbaezer to see if he also uses McAfee on his home computer that is having the same problem.
Just did what you suggested and tried viewing Jespah's video post again, but could not do it. I booted my computer and still could not view the video. Have turned all the McAfee programs back on now.
I was really hoping the solution would be that easy.
I installed Google Chrome temporarily and was able to see the youtube video in Jespah's post. But still cannot see it when using IE 8. Anyone have any suggestions on where to look next?
I usually use Firefox, but inevitably have IE installed, too. No problem with either.
yeah, me too.

@jespah,
Okay, here are my current IE 8 settings from the Advanced Options tab. Anything pop out at anyone that I'm not seeing?
Anyone who is using IE 8 and can view youtubes on A2k, would you mind comparing your IE advanced option properties to mine and tell me what's different?

Usually I use firefox or opera browsers to download youtube but the download is veryslow so I copy the url onto 'youtube downloader' or 'freedownload manager'. 'youtube downloader' is better but if you get interrupted it ends right there and must repeat the download again for the complete version. The 'free download manager' will carry on loading from where it left off. The download is saved as a 'flv' (flash video) file and you have to convert it to a mov (Apple movie) file using the 'youtube downloader'. Then you can watch at your leisure as a video using Apple's Quick Time Player, Real Player or Windows Media Player.

Look into not using IE 8 and using Firefox instead.
Found this page at Adobe with instructions to overcome problems with registry permissions that interfere with installation of Flash. Think I should give it a try?
Also, apparently programmers on other sites are having similar problems with it. This is one of the comments about the fix at the above link:

I followed the instruction, but at the end it didn't make any difference. I am a web developer. The video that I am bringing to my website from the youtube.com, doesn't play when I try to preview it in IE. It plays when I preview in Mozilla, Safari, Opera or Google Chrome, but not in Explorer. The same was yesterday.
Also, the another application I ran, the SlidesHowZilla stopped working. I tried re-install it, but yesterday I was getting a message that Flash Active X plug-in is missing, today I am getting a message that it requires flash.ocx file which is missing.
I run Creative Suite 3.
