1) Maybe you use all your bandwidth with downloading skyrim
2) youtube servers are unbearable these days. Advertisement loads fine, but if you want to watch a video -> takes an eternity to buffer
Add block can only block pop ups I think there is no way to avoid these ads. Considering the price google paid for youtube and the service it provides I am able to live with that though. Its just a PITA that the ads load fine while it seems you have to wait an eternity until the actual videos loads. I always choose 1080p - nothing happens and then switch to 720p and it works. Or vice versa. One way or another I have the feeling there are different servers involved or the priorities change and you will be able to watch the video. For videos longer than 10 minutes I grad and download them anyway. I dont want to wait for buffering in the middle of the video.I've got addblock plus, But I still have to endure the pointless garbage ads at the start of the videos.
