How do I make videos made in Windows Movie Maker fill the video box on YouTube?
I upload videos to YouTube and edit them in Windows Movie Maker. When I upload and play them, there is always black borders either side of the video in the video box. I think it looks much better when the video fills the entire box, but so far I haven't figured out how to get my Movie Maker videos to do this. Any advice?
Think of those "new" widescreen tvs (known as 16:9) vs those old square tv's (known as 4:3).
When watching older shows on a new tv, then you'll see those black bars. This is known as pillar boxing.
When watching a new widescreen show on an old, you'd see bars (top and bottom), this is called "letter boxing". Similarly, when watching movies on any tv, you may see "letter boxing" because movies are wider then both new and old tv's.
When you upload a 4:3 movie onto youtube, you will see pillar boxing (lines left and right). That NEEDS to happen. If those lines weren't there, the movie would be stretched, distorted and awful looking. Circles would be ovals, skinny people would look fat, fat people would look obese, etc.
The best way to completely get rid of those lines is to shoot and edit in 16:9.
Here is a quick video telling you how to select a 16:9 project in Windows Movie Maker.

However, here are a few tips on using 4:3 videos in a 16:9 project.
1) Crop the video. 4x3 -> 16x9 crop the top. 16x9 -> 4x3 crop the sides. You'll loose about a third of the picture doing this.
2) Add a background. You'll see in this clip, when they cut to the old footage from 1998, it doesn't fill the screen. They add a background to avoid those lines.

3) Layer the video on top of it's self. You've seen this one the news many times. About 43 seconds in, you'll see the footage switches to 4x3. The video is doubled up to avoid the pillar boxing.
