UPDATE: Youtube has fixed this. Go back to watching your Lady GaGa.

 

 
It's been terribly hacked by a comments script. Fingers are pointing at 4chan. 
 
Youtube has started to address it by going into safety mode and disabling the comments but I heard you can have cookies stolen and people who are running IE or Opera can have their system32 folder deleted. 
 
One of my videos was hacked and a lot of popular videos redirect you to illegal and violent pornography so I would recommend staying away and if you have been to Youtube since this morning make sure you log out to close your session and render your cookies useless to hackers.

Yeah, there's tons of threads about it all over 4chan. I'm not going on YouTube. (I rarely browse 4chan, but I was on /mu/ this morning.)

It's not as bad now because Youtube is on "safety mode" so all comments are hidden unless you click show. The illegal scripts are run through the comments.

Yeh some videos had scripts which deleted parts of your "system32" whatever that is..but thats bad. And others could redirect you to malware sites. All done but javescript and html stuff.
But they have hidden comments now so it should be safe to go back on, just don't view the comments.

Thanks for the heads up. It's kind of amazing that a group of 4channers can hack a website run by a massive corporation like Google. I remember when they flooded the site with porn videos before but this is something else.

 Ugh fine. I guess this will stop curious perverts from getting a virus or doing something illegal (I'm pretty sure in some states just viewing videos like this is illegal).  Apparently a lot of Justin Beiber videos were redirect to this.

When I visited YouTube earlier today and noticed the comments on 'security mode' when I visited, something seemed to be up. I never thought though that it was because of a nasty exploit - I even went to look at some of the comments. Apart from that though, I noticed nothing else odd - and since I'm posting this, at least my System32 folder is sound.

They found a hole in the comments where they can run external scripts on your browser.  That's why Youtube hid all comments right now and it's on safety mode.

It's under control now that they disabled comments but it's been on the top page of reddit for a while now.

I notice that comments were disabled earlier, now I know why, but I haven't gotten any of the pop-up messages others have.  I'm using Chrome if that makes a difference.
