Everytime I try to load up youtube on Firefox or IE or Google Chrome, it always crashes :(. Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I've restarted my laptop and I was able watch like one video on it before it crashed :@.
EDIT: Just read the title and it sort of looks like I'm proclaiming Youtube as my god xD!

Works fine for me, is it still doing it? If it is try uninstalling and re-installing the flash plugin, something might be screwy with that.

Both of which are terrible.

Hate Safari, used it once, will never use it AGAIN! and don't like the look of Opera :S.
And response to the others: Yeah, everythings up to date, I've updated my flash plugin and tried it but it still doesn't it, or rather it doesn't work after a couple of videos. I've tried searching for info online and some forums have said theres a slight problem with the latest Firefox, don't know why it doesn't work on IE or Chrome, but if I'll give it a couple of days and see if it sorts itself after :P.

Check what your CPU levels are when you're watching on YouTube. Flash uses ALOT of CPU.
If it is running at 100% when watching on youtube then you should remove some bloatware. Although even at 100% it shouldn't crash, just slow down a lot.
The other option is to reinstall Flash (Uninstall then reinstall)

Ok, I'll take a look later on.

It's so long since I've thought about browsers that I had to actually think for a second to remember what one I'm using :P. The answer is Chrome, and it's fine. I'm guessing something needs updating like was suggested.
