Hello as of this moment I have tried starting Firefox in safe mode, refreshing Firefox, uninstalling and reinstall shock-wave; Yet i am still having issues with YouTube videos are taking way to long to load before they play. On average about 5-30 seconds. I do not know why this occurring so I have come to this forum to ask has anyone had this problem before or is it just YouTube's fault.
