Whenever I watch any videos on youtube, the video will always stop halfway and ask whether I want to share or watch again. It's got worst now, I only get to watch for 1 sec and it happens. I've tried everything, downloading the videos that I want to watch, install the latest flash, quicktime, shockwave,internet explorer, refreshing the page, subscribing to user, add to favourite, add to quicklist, send to friend, installing K-Lite Codec pack with windows media player classic but it still won't work! Please help. I've send a lot of e-mails to youtube about this problem but they never replied.

I've just done defragmenting yesterday and I make sure I close other applications everytime watching a video and I'm in my own house not other places.

This will create a red bar in the firefox browser with save as option when you access a video in utube that will let you download the video

looks to me like you have a connection problem... you might wanna check your Internet connection. or if you're in a cafe, or a network, your admin may have restricted the bandwidth for users, or controlled the bandwidth for "youtubers" like you.
installing the K-Lite Codec pack wouldn't really help much, since this applies only to videos you have already downloaded to your PC. Youtube videos are Flash videos being streamed to your PC. You may find third-party tools to actually download the videos but they will still be Flash video files (*.flv) and can be viewed using Flash video players.
... again, the culprit here may be your connection to the Internet (it may have problems, or restricted in some way -- as I've mentioned in some examples above).

Sounds like you have picked up a virus off the youtube site.

You most likely have ether too many things running on your system, Or you have not done a defrag on your system. Do you do regular defraging on your system/computer?

I had this problem too... the solution? Right click on the video and change the settings to give it more of a cache (memory).
Strange, but true.
Oh, and please, please use Firefox... it's faster, safer and has lots of people to help you...
