YouTube Slow as Sh*t!

[iMartin]

The website itself loads fine, in ~ 2.894s. And when I search for a video, the results also come up fine. But when I go to click on a video to watch, it takes F-O-R-E-V-E-R to load/buffer. Now there for a while everything was working peachy, but no more. What's the deal? (I'm on a 1024KBit down, 384KBit up connection)

Nope...still nothing. :dabs: I downloaded VideoDownloader for FireFox, but it's too much of a hassel, I'd just like to get on to YouTube and watch videos, not go through the trouble of downloading them :frusty:
