The security certificate thing is normally a warning to not continue the site could be trying to redirect you to another site entirely or could be trying to direct you to a FAKE or malicious site intended to harm your computer. If the name of the site does not match the name on the certificate then rest assured that means that there is something wrong and to proceed with the utmost caution possible.

For YouTube you need Flash.
