I think the problem is solved, even I got the notification above, I right-now checked the extensions and could find IDM, went to YouTube and it seems everything is fine, so the solution as You stated at the first is just to update IDM to the latest version :)

Dont need IDM extension for download videos of youtube and others, IDM extension is only for context menu purposes as "Download all with IDM" per example.

I highly recommend against disabling of "Enable phishing and malware protection". It's an important security feature and should never be disabled, unless really required.

solution :lol:

Its Version is 6.17.1 which means its an outdated extension and does not support downloading of newest released videos from YouTube for which Google has already changed the code. Its not a proper and permanent workaround. It works as a temp fix for older Videos, need to wait until something really comes out which solves and eradicates this issue completely. Thanks for sharing !!!

Statement from IDM Support Centre :

We can confirm that "IDM integration" Chrome extension versions 6.15.* (all 6.15 versions, released from March 2013 till June 2013) do not satisfy Google security requirements.

But all extensions released prior 6.15.* and after 6.15.*, for example, 6.14.* or 6.17.* do not have any known security issues.

The problem that you are experiencing now is caused by a slow review of newer versions of "IDM integration" extension by Google Chrome review team.

We should wait for several days for Google web store team to review newer versions of our extension.

You may try to use other browsers during these days, or contact Google about this issue.

Temp Fix :

1) Go to setting and disable "Enable phishing and malware protection", then try to install the crx again. It works for me (Though Not recommended) .

2) Alternate way to bypass this restriction.

- Go to "Internet Download Manager" folder in the "Program Files".

- Look for file IDMGCExt.crx (This is the IDM integration extension for Chrome)

- Using 7Zip or Winzip or Winrar extract the contents of the file to a folder on desktop (or where you can write data, since in the program files you need permissions to write)

- Copy the folder with the files extracted to the folder of IDM in Program Files

- Open extensions page on Google Chrome and enable the developer mode.

- Click on button "Load unpacked extension" (or something like that), navigate to the folder where you extracted the files and choose it. Done. IDM extension will be back.

You Can Use MassTube to download the Youtube videos with IDM by selecting IE as external application to open the links.
