Okay, this is just annoying...

For some reason, I can't get Youtube to work anymore. It will load and play the first 2 seconds of a clip, but then it stalls, even though it indicates it is still loading.

What could be causing this, and what do I need to do to fix it?

My only idea would be to restart your computer, if you haven't already.

Good luck!

Sometimes I think it does that when there's a lot of people using the site/watching that particular video, but I don't really know.

Are you using Firefox? Because that's been happening to me. I find that either restarting Firefox or using the IE Tab add-on to view the page fixes the problem.

No YooToob? That's a travesty!

But I am too computer-ignorant to offer anything helpful towards fixing it, sorry.
