Yeah I think it may just be the shockwave plugin so I'll do that first.
I find Firefox really good to use. Simple, clean and fast. Doesn't have a million popups, add ons and news feeds like explorer
Ok so eff all difference.....
Its still struggling badly to play YouTube.
I've got the latest version of firefox. (as automatically updated last month).
I've just downloaded the latest shockwave flash, installed and restarted the computer.
I try to go on YouTube and it gives me the same error message as before which is: shockwave plugin is unresponsive. Click this to stop plugin or click this to continue..
My computer in general has slowed down heaps in the last month. Ive run the Microsoft security essentials scan and its found nothing wrong.
Just use google chrome... Haha
Are you still runnung the nissanpatrol.com.au screen saver Lucas *LMAO*
I don't know what's going on. Getting fu$king pissed off though. The laptop (including Firefox) has run lightning fast and perfectly up to about a month ago when it started slowing down. In the last few days it's been beyond a joke!
It just took 8 minutes to open Firefox and go to YouTube and once there wouldn't play a video because the shockwave plugin is still effed.
Everything is going really slow. It takes about 8 minutes for the damn thing to start up.
I've scanned it, it's fine. Removed a heap of old programs(not important ones, just games and stuff).
I have a powered 1TB storage with all my pics backed up so I just tried to plug it in to backup the latest few folders but the computer won't even recognise its plugged in!
