Youtube suddenly doesn't load pages fast in hd? EXTREMELY slow after a few seconds. Constant buffering and totally unwatchable. Not sure what happened. Is anyone familiar with this problem? It was working fast a day or two ago.

Thanks

What kind of computer are you on - make/model/OS?
Try YouTube with your Anti Virus software disabled.
Look for extensions/add-ons in the browser that might be causing the issue.

I reinstalled the browser and updated windows and the problem disappeared. There was an update fixing a flash vulnerability in there so i think i was affected by it. Thanks for the help.
