<div id="video">
			<script type="text/javascript">
AC_AX_RunContent( 'width','425','height','344','src','http://www.youtube.com/v/VYXypBPvoAM&hl=en&fs=1','type','application/x-shockwave-flash','allowscriptaccess','always','allowfullscreen','true','movie','http://www.youtube.com/v/VYXypBPvoAM&hl=en&fs=1'); //end AC code

I am not too familiar with the AC_AX_RunContent functions but did a quick search and thought of two possibilites.

1) Did you correctly reference the external JS files? Before the code you should have:

<script src="/Scripts/AC_ActiveX.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 
<script src="/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Changing the paths to however you have your site set up.

2) From my understanding these are ActiveX controls. Is your IE set up to run ActiveX or are they completely blocked from running?

I found this site that has the JS files if you need them and some additional information: http://forums.hostmysite.com/about2230.html
