    [​IMG] Well, I remember back when I had XP Home, I could see them without too much problems, I mean, they loaded fast, even videos longer than 3 or 5 minutes.
    Now, with XP Pro SP2, they take long time to load, even 30secs videos take about 2 minutes to load; I'm still have the same internet connection (1MB) and now I'm using Firefox 2.0.
    Anything that I should update? Something I have to configure?

    Thanks!

    Perhaps the fault is not at your end, since during this time the popularity of YouTube has exploded. Thus, naturally, their bandwidth usage has to be astronomical nowdays.

    Try switching to DailyMotion.com. They vids load a lot faster for me, so the same should apply to you.
