YouTube icon disappeared from App drawer... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Strange thing has happened. YouTube has always been on the last page of my app drawer. Makes sense really as its in alphabetical order.
This morning i noticed that it has disappeared and been replaced with an app called Flash Player. The Flash Player app is simply a link to a web page regarding settings for local storage or peer something or other.
YouTube is still installed on the phone. When I selected a video through the browser it gave me the option to play it through YouTube, which worked. But I can't understand why the icon has gone from the app drawer and been replaced with one for Flash Player. I can't delete the Flash Player app and can't figure out how to get YouTube back on to the app drawer screen.
HELP!!!!!!!!!

I assume you're using TouchWiz (the default launcher), and if you are then search the market for AppZorter. That should help
doesn't help.
anything else?

No video while streaming, I get only sound

I got my S3 today.
I have a strange problem.
When I stream any video with stock video player, mx player or from browser (HTML5), I get only sound. See no video.
Only Vplayer displays video, but this does not solve my problem cause I watch online movies from HTML5.
I didn't have this problem with my previous HTC One X. So I'm sure the sites I watch movies from are compatible with Android.
Anyone had this problem? Any solutions?
BTW, if I stream with stock video player it displays a message saying "Playind audio data only"
Any help will be appreciated
My device is not unlocked, I'm on stock ROM.

Never heard of this problem before. But maybe uninstalling youtube app and then re installing it may help.
If you don't have Youtube App means this will happen.
Try as said above.
I did it's the same as before I think I'll try to flash another rom
Edit:flashing didn't make any difference

Can't save an MP3 link from Chrome

When I long press an MP3 link and select "Save Link" the download is always unsuccessful. It tries for about a second then fails. This is easily accomplished using the regular browser but I'd love to use Chrome.
Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions? Stock device. Not rooted.
Thank you
Try to download the mp3 by using your native stock brower

This is what I am currently doing but I just figured there has got to be a way to do it in Chrome. Must figure it out
Update chrome to the latest version? I have the same problem before but now it is fixed.

Virus?

Hi
I have a Galaxy S2 with wanamlite android 4.0.4. And I receive strange notifications written in Chinese or so ...see first PIC.
And also when I try to share a webpage I have an unexpected option 'adult video' ... see second PIC.
Can you help me get rid of that please?

Probably an app with some nasty side effects. First run a virus scan by downloading avast or lookout. If that doesn't show anything weird then try to remember which app you installed last and a last resort is a factory reset to remove any app you've installed.
Not a virus. It's something you've installed.

Maybe a Air Push for Ads in chinese? Some adult app?

OK I just ran lookout and it founds nothing harmful.
I've been having these notifications for a while now so I really don't know which app it can come from.

I installed Air Push Detector which seems to indicate that the app FLV Video Player pushes air ads. Do I uninstalled it and I'll see if there are no more add.
