Youtube jacked on my laptop

Hp Pavilion dv6707
Vista 32 premium

for some odd reason, my laptop doesn't like Youtube anymore. It will play vids that are in a Facebook feed (for example) but it will not play videos from the site proper. The video will try to load, and I'll even get the audio, but no picture. Very odd...

If I roll over the progress bar (proper term?) the time of the video displays on the screen and freezes there, so if I move my mouse left or right on the bar, multiple time stamps freeze on the screen. Also, there is some weird red bar that sits on top of the normal progress bar, it starts at ~15% of the video and ends ~85% or so. I've tried multiple browsers, reinstalled Chrome, updated java and flash... what the hell?

Any help would be awesome.
