haha sh*t happens every day, man. It just happens.
If you click "View in High Quality," it might be slower to load. Some certain vids are heavier in size than others. Click Pause and let the loading bar fill up, then press Play.

I've noticed more dead starts, where the video never loads and gotta refresh the browser. Once it starts it's ok, I think that might be your ISP slowing down on you, I see no slowdowns here.

More often than not, it's your computer.

I read somewhere that if you don't prescribe to a regimen of reloading your computer every 6 months, you don't and won't be using your computer at full strength due to virus/malware activity.

And after cleaning this womans' computer with 4003 virus/malware pieces, I believe it.

lol

That's a whole different story. Malware sucks!
Got a good product the other day (ofcourse for free :D ). It's called a-Squared. The best Anti-Malware I've dealt with. It hogs a small chunk of the memory, but it's powerful 8)

John, get an XP Home Edition CD from a friend and install it. Win Millennium has been sucking fatty balls for 8 years :P
