    Does anybody have issues with firefox and you tube. When I start up my comp it works fine with utube but eventually it stops playing video. It plays one sec then it just gets stuck.. Can anyone help me resolve this?

    it could just be that video... sometimes my firefox gets moody with me and wont play a certain video try other videos... other than that all i can say is try it on a different browser like ie or chrome...

    Yeah ... sometimes that happens for me too. Like what the guy that posted before me said firefox is weird and plays some video and doesn't play others . My solution is to either try a different browser or if theres a "watch in high quality" option watch it in high quality cause that sometimes loads the video. If there isnt a "Watch in high quality" button add "&fmt=18" at the end of the URL and it might load.

    Try Opera and watch it again. IF it happens again maybe the Flash Player is the problem :p

    If you haven't already, go download FF3. If that doesn't fix it, make sure it's not the video itself. If it's neither of those, check your setting and put youtube on your trusted sites as well as check your comp usage. If something is using up most of your comps spare, end the program (unless you know, it's important) If none of that helps, I don't know what to tell you.
