Every time I go to watch any streaming video, the browser becomes non responsive and crashes. Any idea as to what is causing this. (it is happening in both IE and FF)

I disabled all of my plug-ins and re-enabled them one by one and now it appears to be working.
THANKYOU WINDOWS FOR MORE UNCONVENTIONAL SOLUTIONS TO RANDOM PROBLEMS.

If you hate Windows so much, and you hate Mac, why don't you give Linux another go? I mean, the Flash is definitely more buggy on there, but everything else is better IMO.

I have a brand-new i7 with 4 monitors running Win7, and a little budget laptop running 9.10, and when I'm sitting at my desk with both in front of me, I'm on the laptop about 90% of the time. (The rest is spent on MW2). It may have it's problems, but Linux/Ubuntu/9.10 is just so much more enjoyable.

Lol then play COD5 on the PS3, there is more stuff on the PS3 version than the PC.

EDIT: How the hell did you get all that negative karma? Was someone joking, or was there a reason?

Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

The thing about PC gaming though is that devs are putting less and less features in PC games to distinguish them from their console counterparts. For instance, take MW2, it has no server list, no mods, nothing extra. You may as well play on PS3/360. I would personally buy a cheap PC and a PS3.

I don't get the point of hacking. It just takes the fun out of gaming.

But hacking can be so much fun too! (note I am talking about the act of hacking, not the result - that's just being cheap)

Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

Yeah, but mods aren't hacks, and they generally improve the playability of a game. Take CS:S for instance, I wouldn't still be playing the game if gun game or zombie mod didn't exist. Yes, the original game was fun, but it gets boring after a while, so it's nice when new game types come up. The only way of people to implement this is by modding the game/server.

I highly doubt the addons crashing Firefox has anything to do with Window. Perhaps you updated Firefox which broke addon compatibility which caused the crashes, in which case it is your fault for not updating the addons.

No, we need to teach you that not everything is Microsoft's fault. Sure, a lot of things are. But not everything.

WWIII? It will be Microsh*t's fault. Then it will abruptly come to an end displaying "Would you like to send an error report?" just before a blue screen screams before us. Oh the horrors.

Well, someone ruined that short-lived experience (provided this event took place after the initial goal) with someone adding positive karma and all.

Duh I understand that, but along with this happening. other programs were doing the same thing, which I uninstalled and reinstalled which fixed the problem, but it didn't work with FF.

Don't forget the negative karma too. He is at 7-67

He is is he? Hah! It's a word palomine (Which I can't spell, as usual) Also I wonder who gave him that... *Looks around suspiously(Still can't spell)*

A while ago I asked people to constantly give me - karma when ever they saw any of my posts
i figured people would be more willing to give - that +

Well I was talking about the fact that I saw you with +7/-66 karma for a while now. And then it changed. I figured Turing_Gamer did it. Though now I guess not.

It wasn't me. I added - karma to him a while back but someone else at the same time probably did it...

Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

Remember the part about me not spelling? Which I had? But yes, I meant palindrome (How did I get that bad?) Actually Euphoracle, I'm sure he got most of his - karma for that (At least 50%) People on the Interwebs do stuff like that all the time.

Sometimes phonics could help a great deal.

Author:  USEC_OFFICER [ Thu Feb 18, 2010 5:02 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

Sometimes, but English is a big clump of words taken from other languages, so phonics don't always help. (I know I spelt that wrong.)

Author:  SNIPERDUDE [ Thu Feb 18, 2010 9:20 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

When we look at the differences between words like, say.. palomine and palindrome, phonics could certainly help.

Author:  USEC_OFFICER [ Thu Feb 18, 2010 10:34 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:streaming video\'s crash internet browser what?

I can't believe that I spelt it like that. I believe that I din't pronouce the dr part, turning it into palomine. If I was speaking about palomines, it would be bang on though.
