YT links not working in IE

I used to at least see the initial start image. Now even if I double-click the big black square, I can't get to the videos. I figure it's some sort of x-site scripting issue. YT isn't blocked or anything.

Attached is the source of the issue.

Link to one of the known fixes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...-or-method-ie?

Bottom line:
IE was originally released back in 1995, with IE11 (released 10/2013) being the last of its kind. It is slated for EOL very soon, and Microsoft has only been releasing security patches (no feature enhancements) for IE as of late.

If you have access to modern browsers (e.g. Chrome, Edge, Firefox), then there is absolutely NO reason to be using IE unless you're feeling nostalgic.

UNLESS you have an application that hasn't been converted to html5 yet, so still have to use IE

OK, I've found that FFox is much better than IE for showing the YT links, but I can't call out another user using @ in FFox? Or is it somehow different?

Next stop: Chrome. . .
