    If it wasn't for the partition deal I would agree with Gary that it wasn't on your end,
    The only News I've seen was about the stand alone shockwave player update,
    Bill posted it 4 days ago ?

    I know you've run hdd tests but which virus.. scanners have you run ?
    You know the bests are Adwcleaner/ Malwarebytes/ Superantispyware or at least those are my preference,
    Cheers.

    I guess you are right. I first suspected that my router firewall may have something to do with it - although I had not changed anything in the router.

    I think the fault is at You Tube's end. I often have trouble getting some videos to play. even one of you Vimeo tuts sat for about 10 seconds before doing anything, but it played fine.

    Since it was down for you in in 8 different systems, I doubt it was on your end.
    You are probably right there Brit; as I too have experienced issues with playing videos on youtube from time to time and i know for a fact it wasnt my system. So yea youtube must be the one with gremlins in it lol.

    Speaking of Gremlins. For a couple of weeks I had another gremlin, but this time on Skydrive/Onedrive.

    I place tutorials with hyperlinks in PDF format on Skydrive. Those you can open directly with the Web App and also operate the hyperlinks directly there like in this example. But during a couple of weeks after they changed to Onedrive, the hyperlinks did not work. Now all of a sudden they work again. This together with Youtube not working was a real pain. Go figure.
