youtube problem
well friends, here's the deal, a couple of days ago i endeavoured to download a track from youtube, it seemed however that youtube wanted to give me a playlist of tracks, there are fifteen tracks in this playlist,but when it gets to track number six the computer just gets stuck, it seems to lock and stay there, i've given it plenty of time to download the tracks, but it just lodges and stays there, therefore i abhort the download, and now whenever i go to youtube for a track i keep getting the same tracks, and locking at track number six, i've installed youtube to mp3 converter, but it makes no difference, how can i solve this problem, i'm using mozilla firefox which i hate, far too slow and cumbersome, hope someone can help, as i can't access youtube at all, god bless, travel safely, joe bollard, the republic of ireland.
