The youtu.be site is owned by Google, and it's used for short URLs to YouTube videos.

I'm not sure that I understand the problem you're having with youtu.be, though. Can you be more specific about what you're seeing happen?

Thanks for your answer Thomas_r, I dit not know about it. The thing that made me suspicious was that the youtu.be-link tried to "download" right under the usual window for videos in the youtube.com site and it took some time. Also was the youtube.com window that I first entered was corrupted. But anyway, if its Googles own URL it's probably nothing to worry about. Thanks again.
