Website takes ages to load.

I use Opera for web browsing, have for a year now, it's been fine, however now I cant seem to load youtube fast anymore, and videos hardly load now, they take forever, now the same videos sometimes load instantly in other browsers such as AOL browser and IE7, but some still hardly run, any idea why? I am not sure if its a setting in Windows Vista or something, but even other websites crawl aswell

.

Thanks
Willz.

When did this start happening, what was the last thing you changed before it happened?

I cant exactly remember when it started, I guess about 3 weeks ago, I havent really changed anything, I really dont understand why it's like this, dunno if it's my ISP or what

What version of Opera are you running, is it happening all the time? What else are you running with it? Anyone else on your network? What ISP are you with?

I'm using Opera 9.23, my ISP is AOL and I'm the only one on my network, apart from the server next to me which is turned off.

Out of interest are you using the Beta version of youtube or the "stable" version? Tried both notice any difference? Have you tried messing with your network settings in opera advance, maybe allow more total connections and 32 to each server? Can't really think of much more...

Totally unrelated, tried Kestrel yet

?
