LOL you are funny. The weird thing is some vids will play and some vids wont. It's never happened before so I'm confuzzled. Then again I'm nearly always confuzzled so nothing new there then. Is it just my comp?

Hi (((((KJ)))))
This is probably not much help, but we don't think it is your computer.

We were chatting to a friend in England last night, at around the time you are talking about, and she was having the same problem. As she had played the first video several times before the problem started we considered it was unlikely to be a buffering issue, and more likely to be an issue with the you tube site. They have been busy wiping out heaps of videos that they have been ordered to delete for copyright reasons.

Has the problem cleared up now ? If it hasn't, post again & we will think about the kind of system you are running on the computer.

Hi Zorah

It's still happening but it's definitely gotta be my computer coz other people are managing to view vids that I can't. But it's never happened before which is why I can't figure it.

Well, now everything seems to be ok. All I done was shut down and restart my comp. I'm confuzzled but not complaining. Is it just my comp?

Thats good KJ. Glad it's working now.

If something goes wrong with the computer, shutting it down & rebooting is always worth trying first thing.

Yes, it's like dominoes; once the first one falls there's no telling what's going to happen or why, it's all a mess and has to be started from scratch, not "fixed".
