Thanks Ronni & Jane, I have downloaded the Flash Player uninstall and run it, downloaded a fresh copy of the player and installed it, I also reset Safari but all to no avail. I also tried playing the same You Tube clip with Firefox and Chrome and they are worse than Safari. I will have a look at some another You Tube clip after lunch (got to go out for a while now) and see if they all act the same.
