Video can be blocked from appearing on MySpace when there is a match.<br /><br /> <div class='newslinks'><img src='http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/public/style_images/1/cs_page.gif'>&nbsp;<b>Link: <a href='http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/2007-02-12-myspace-filter_x.htm?POE=TECISVA' target='_blank'><font color='red'>Complete article at USA Today</font></a><br />
