In terms of customizing the "incorrect" message, one option is to mess with the localization files and change the English translation of "incorrect". I know this was described in the forum previously but I can't find the post right now. The problem with doing this is that it needs to be maintained every time WeBWorK is upgraded.

Regarding posting a URL as a hint to students, check out http://webwork.maa.org/wiki/AnswerHints for some options on providing hints to students. You should be able to add the following code to your problem:

$showHint = 2;
BEGIN_HINT
Watch \{ htmlLink( "http://www.youtube.com/videolink", "this video" ) \} for help with this problem.
END_HINT

This is untested, but should show the hint after 2 attempts.
