No I don't believe i'm blocking google.
I have google adsense on my site and google seems to send lots of bots to my site so i'd say it's not blocked.

But you say on the server? should I be asking my host? urljet?
what do I ask them?

I tried using bbcode, Example - [youtube]xxxxxxxxxx[/youtube]
It doesn't work.

Would I need to do the following? does that work in vb5?

Admin CP -> Custom BB Codes -> Add New BB Code

Title - YouTube
Tag - youtube
Replacement:

Code:
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
