Whenever I try watching a video, either embedded or on youtube's site, I can only watch 2 seconds of it. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I can even fast forward the video and it still will only let me watch 2 seconds of where I stopped the forwarding and then I can't watch any more. Any help you guys can give me?

you could just be experiencing a weak connection.  if thats the case it should be temporary. its happened to me before.

Wow, thanks dubai posting a youtube video in a thread where I tell you I can't watch videos. You really are starting to make me mad. I'm trying to give you a chance but damn.

And to the people who actually tried to help. Its not a bad connection. I'm running at 5 MB/sec and its on my personal computer. I still don't know whats up.

maybe your flash player is outdated, try installing the latest version. I really have no idea.
