You can get the TAB for this by using the link that pops up at the start.
Great isn't it?

Be very careful with this link.
When I tried it, the video started with an add for Kitchenware direct......and I had a funny feeling about the way the video started.
Sure enough, later when I was checking my emails I found Kitchenware direct had somehow changed details on some of my internet purchases.
Miserable b******s

Hi Pete and Alan,
Pete's link is a normal YouTube link ... with over 1,000,000 viewings !!
Alan, if you are having issues with Kitchenware direct, it is not caused by this link. You should investigate further and from what you are describing I would not do anything on your PC until it is thoroughly checked out.
As a start, do you have updated anti-virus and anti-malware software installed ??
Regards
George

Hi Alan,
Maybe it is possible that kitchenware was already up to no good on your system and that could be the very reason why the ad was seen on YouTube.
I think George is giving very good advice.
Regards,
Charlie

George and Pete,
Nothing very serious appears to have happened. I did a scan and clean up and the adds have stopped following me around. Please do not delete the link. Anyone who can play like that should be heard.
Cheers
Alanh

Hi Alan,
Good that you have done a clean up of your system.
There should be no reason to delete the link.
Regards,
Charlie

I had no problem with this at all last year. I didn't have to sign up to any social media, and no-one infested my computer.
I do know that it's very easy to find a little box somewhere not highly visible, and if you don't remove the tick to stop this sort of thing happening you can be caught out, but I don't recall any of this when I downloaded the TAB last year. Perhaps it's become so popular that it's picked up some parasites since then.
Maybe it's a reminder to us all,
Len
