Does anyone know why watching videos on Youtube might crash my computer...

...when nothing else does? The screen went completely black even though the modem was still on and I had to switch the power off and then on again in order to restart the computer.

Any suggestions???

Try updating the flash player software. It should only take few minutes to do and you need to anyway at intervals.

Untick install google/yahoo toolbar unless you really want them

If that fails to help it's recommended that you go to add-remove programs (in control panel) uninstall flash and install it again from that link.

Thank you! I will give that a go tonight.
