Avast reports a virus.Nevertheless,it is not a virus,avast reports a virus because the malicious code is at the description of the vid.As far as i remember,months ago,if you'd write a malicious code(script for example)and save it as a .txt(not .vbs) file avast would detect the txt file as a virus even if it's not.
IMO the code in the description triggers avast.

BUT THE MALCIOUS CODE WAS IN GZIP RIGHT...IS THAT POSSIBLE....THAT BAD GUYS ARE BEGINING TO WRITE CODES IN ZIPPED ARCHIVES...

I made a topic about the same vid long time ago.Can't find it,i had some good answers from others.

BAD guys CAN DO ANYTHING....BUT IS IT POSSIBLE THAT EVEN WELL MONITERED SITES LIKE YOUTUBE ARE USED AS HOST SITES TO INJECT codes???

Come on this is not even a virus,just stupid commands,he posted a batch code,this is not malware.
Ofc it is possible to inject codes,i-frames etc.They will find a way for sure.

Your keyboard needs attention as the caps lock key is stuck.

ALL CAPS is classed as shouting.

Why you started this as a poll is beyond me.

Hi com155,

Thank you for pointing this out to us.

Various YouTube malware has been with us since 2007/2008, see this link on the YTFakeCreator for instance, a virus constructor type malware: http://www.pandasecurity.com/homeusers/security-info/about-malware/encyclopedia/overview.aspx?lst=det&idvirus=199609&sitepanda=particulares

To-day there is rip-off pages and Fake YouTube using exploit CVE-2010-3338

Malicious YouTube can install trojans via a malicious Java applet, there are Fake YouTube security checks etc. etc.

Probably the malcreants will leave your Mom's hot kitchen stove alone and are into brewing and cooking up quite other malware dishes, also on YouTube,

P.S. Agree with DavidR that using capital letters in postings is considered a form of digital shouting and bad nettiquette and should not be used to stress words or as another form of exclamation mark(s) online,
