Hello, recently i am having a strange problem with youtube videos downloads, they stop downloading due to connection loss and restarting them will only make them redownload from start and again lose connection in the middle sad.gif. I have dialup and i use freedownload manager. I recently installed RP 7 and orbit downloader and then uninstalled orbit downloader, i doubt that any of these have to do with my problem.

Can anybody help me thanks.

.FIXED.

I fixed it myself. I am using Firefox, so what i had to do is to download this Video acceleartor (Optional) and let the Youtube video run in the browser window. Then i would go to about:cache in the firefox and find the video file, and just rename that file from x:\windows\application data\firefox\profile\xxxxxxx\cache folder.

It worked and strangely no lose of connection takes place while playing the video in the browser.
