I have a youtube account which I use to upload the occasional screencast, but when I try to log in i get the following message
The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
* This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept
cookies.
Which then repeats each time I visit youtube until I remove cookies...then I can view all content, but I'm unable to edit my own content as I'm not logged in
I use firefox as my primary browser, but the same issue is with cometbird,. same issue with a different error message from IE, and the same problem using firefox in XP mode, last think to try is going to be a completely different machine.
All cookies are enabled..I think I've tried all the obvious steps..any suggestions?
When i click to sign in the following URL appears on the address bar prior to the failure

Looks like characters are being swapped for junk (%3A%2F%2F instead of :// in the URL) so something is not parsing correctly, which suggests I could rebuild the URL if I knew all the coding...but that's no solution.
