Thanks very much.

I get that. They can go to YouTube and enter “Vik Aubrey Original Staying Alive” and find it for themselves.

That would launch YOUTUBE's malware and capture the users passwords on any  open tab (e.g., Free Republic, Twitter etc.). Going to YOUTUBE at all has to be done with care and the instructions are in the comments of this thread.

I've had to change my passwords a few times for this issue because I forget. I now use Rumble because Google owns YOUTUBE and it's Googles decision to spy on people.. For those interested, here's a thread about Google's spyware

Google is at it again, new YouTube security threat

I have detected a serious YouTube security threat that needs exposure. All IT and security experts welcome to please check into my findings and chime in. Here is what I found so far. Years ago this was a problem. Just going to youtube or Google mail at all even on another tab without logging in would load strong spyware in your browser and even in your machine permanently which required reinstalling your OS to remove. It tracked logins on other tabs and was gaining access to keyboards, microphones, and cameras even if you just landed on their site by accident....
