Freezing problems?

Freezing problems?

is anyone else having a problem with the shows freezing at 3 to 5 mins into the episode. For some reason this is happening to me and i need to know if the problems on my end or are others having the same problem. every since i upgrade firefox it's been crashing much more often so i'm wondering if thats the problem but it also happens when i use saffari. so i'm highly annoyed but not sure at who yet.

The first thing i usually do is restart my computer and router i use a wireless connection so i do the router first because it takes a bit longer to reset

I have the same problem but I am at work so I am not sure if it is something to do with work or VIP

i've tried the computer shutdown/re-boot & the internet router un-plug a couple times. not sure why this is suddenly happening. i've had firefox crash on me about ten times today. i'm not sure i like the newest version, ever since i've upgraded it's been crashing daily on me. this is so maddening - i wish i could blame it on the website but sadly it seems to be my computer

If you do find out what is causing it please post the solution because there are those rare few that have this problem consistantly and could use another option than those already available to us as users/viewers. I do have to say though the problems I've had have been fairly easy to get help with. This is an unusual situation,in my experience, and I am one in very few from what I hear, Firefox Always stalls out no matter what show I am watching. I gave it up and went back to regular old fashioned IE and never have those problems anymore. Like I mentioned though I believe that is not the usual case, most would say firefox is best and I would agree for most it is but not for me for some reason. Again I wish you luck and please do let us know how it turns out!

At the moment any time i try to watch show's on the EU server it crashes firefox within 3 to 5 min's into the show. This problem only started recently (like in the last 3 days or so) I have no problems watching the shows on the US server, so that's the solution i've come up with. (i know pretty low tech but it's working for me. I have know idea why the EU server is giving me these troubles but i must say it is not soling related to firerfox because when using safari the show freezes 3-5min in - luckly not crashing the program but ending the viewing all the same. if i find out or figure out why this may be happening i'll be sure to post. cheers
