kieren1234 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Hi all, i have just recently moved my PC into another room and have been removing any programmes that i dont use to free up some memory. After doing this i can no longer watch any videos on the net, if i go to youtube it just does not bring up the video. Has anyone got any ideas what i have done as i am not very clued up when it comes to computers. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benzsupra Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Try downloading Adobe Flash player, Real one player and Divx bundle. Install all of these and one of the codecs should get youtube back up and working again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kieren1234 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 Wierd, the pc wont allow me to download anything either. It may be because it is now on wireless internet and the connection is very low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kieren1234 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 :D No its on our own router. Any ideas??? Should i try hard wiring it to see if that works, i think it is only connected at 11.0 Mbps at the moment and is usually 100.0 when wired in.

stevie_b Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Avast isn't too bad. I don't think it protects against spyware though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Avast gets my vote too. Don't worry about spyware just be careful what u install and where u go. If you want to be a little bit more safe get urself a router (if you don't have one), those are hardware firewalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
