    Whenever I try watching a Youtube or Photobucket video it always freezes unless I toggle the mouse.

    It seems that it wont buffer fully unless the mouse is moving.

    Common problem??

    Within a GTI window, or on the YT site itself?

    I have the same problem myself, from their main site or from a gti window.

    Think it is my 1.5mb connection or just AOL?

    I sometimes have buffering problems with YouTube, both in here and on their site. I think it`s just down to my connection speed, and doesn`t happen all the time.

    Photobucket on the other hand is always super sloooooooooooooow, either when uploading or browsing my album. It`s just the same on my (super quick) works computers, and has only been that way for a couple of months, so may be a problem their end.
