18 That I have not tried. I do think that it got worse after the upgrade
19 of flash. I can't recall which version was the last that did it tho. I
20 have upgraded flash stuff and browser stuff so I can't point to which is
21 causing what.

23 I have noticed a larger use of memory tho. I have 16Gbs here and it
24 uses a good bit more than it used to. Maybe another upgrade will reduce
25 it back down. Wonder why programs have to use so much now? Maybe the
26 new html5 will change that. ;-)

28 I'm waiting on it to do it again. It is random but I don't recall it
29 ever doing it on youtube. I spend a lot of time there. lol
