You tube is being blocked by webroot as a threat and I need to unlock it
Suddenly you tube is being blocked by web root. It says that :this web site doesn't supply identity information. I just want to unblock you tube so I can watch business videos. Thanks for all the help. Steve

Welcome to the Community Forum,
Are you trying to watch the clips directly from youtube.com or are you on a different site that has links to some youtube clips? If it is a 3rd party site, it is possible that they are being blocked due to any ads that the 3rd party site is adding any URL Redirects that the 3rd party site is using.
Please check the BrightCoud URL and Request a Change here
Maybe notifying BrightCloud of a potential false positive/need to reclassify a site is that when you are blocked locally from entering it, and you know that it is safe, then you can click the 'Unblock and proceed' button on the WSA blocking web page and not only will that whitelist the site locally for you for the future but it will also notify BrightCloud of the local override and as I understand it these are also picked up and used to trigger re-evaluatios of the sites reputation.
If you still have troubles then you can always issue that Support Ticket and they can look into this for you free of charge with an active subscription.
Hope this helps and if not please get back to us.
Kind Regards,
