I'm still interested in keeping my machine vital and safe and still have access to web video. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

1) Max out on RAM
2) Install and use Onyx (free download)
3) Keep at least 15% free space on your HD

Enjoy your Mac for many years to come (just won't have access to the latest OSes and APPs).

Razormac's advice is fine but will do nothing to keep your machine safe. To do that, you'll need to unplug it from the internet -- since Java, Flash, Javascript and many other things are no longer being updated for Leopard to patch security issues. So you're going to have less and less access to video as well.

My advice would be to ditch that thing and get something from the Intel Age. Your PPC had a good long run but it's time to move on.
