Question by Sameh: Youtube isn’t working on my computer. However, it is working on my Dad’s and we share the connection?
I haven’t changed any settings. I may have gotten a virus or so, but I’ve run scans. I’m also aware that internet cables were cut in the Mediterranean and that affects me in the UAE.

On Firefox 3.0.1
Every time I try to go to youtube or a video via link, It eventually times out, stating:
‘Server not responding’

On IE7
Every time I try to go to youtube or a video via link it shows:
‘Page cannot be displayed’

Could it be a setting that my Dad changed?

If it helps, I use a Cat5 connection, not wireless.
The rest of my browsing is unaffected, but Google Video doesn’t work either (same prob)

Usually I’d attribute it to UAE blocking the site, but as mentioned, it works on the other computer.

Thanks
Sameh
