...because of the 'plug-in not found shockwave flash' thing. So annoying man, I spent like 3 hours yesterday evening with my laptop jacked into my modem whilst I buffered an awesome collection of scenes I found online and when I finally took my laptop upstairs to watch this plug-in thing happened.
So I tried taking it back to the modem to see if they would work then, and the same thing happened even when I plugged back into my modem. So basically the problem wasn't present up until like 10:00 last night, then it arose.
Anyone else suffered this horrible torture? What did you do?
I'm currently using a pc cleaner which I downloaded from a help page I found, it's scanning and finding a lot of issues, but I'm half expecting that I'll have to pay big bucks to actually get it to do the job and I have no money whatsoever at the moment. So when I get money again soon, I think I might have to spend a fair bit of it on porn dvd's man... and so my next topic asking for recommendations is on its way...
This is more of a tech talker...

I don't watch any porn on my computer. You need a high speed connection to download or stream content otherwise it is annoying and programs can give you hickups.
I rent DVDs through the mail and play them on a basic DVD player. Occasionally a DVD arrives cracked but for the most part it is easier than messing with my computer. If you have a DVD recorder with a hard drive and a filter you can save content to the recorder HDD.

When I have had 'plug-in probs' i do the following:
1. Go to browser options and make sure the plug-in/extension is still there and ticked. if fail go to 2.
2. Go to 'Control Panel' uninstall any flash/plug-in based software (adobe flash/microsoft silverlight etc) and restart PC and go to website with video (should automatically re-install plugin required.) if fail go to 3.
3. Uninstall web browser and then uninstall any flash/plug-in software. Also try different browser just in case the website is incompatible.
If none of the above work get CCleaner (free) and clean registry just in case it is a file extension conflict. Also in Control Panel check the Windows Firewall program list just incase the plug-in is being blocked.
Failing all that depending on how vital the plug-in is to you is reinstall Windows/Linux/Apple OS operating system.

Geeeeez, good advice but reinstalling the operating system? I've done it many times, only takes me an hour to reinstall the OS, but then to load all the programs and get it all back and running takes me hours longer. Not worth spending 6 hours to put everything back together.

Well I installed a newer version of google chrome, installed a newer version of shockwave flash, defragged my computer and uninstalled a load of $hit that I don't want, and currently I'm buffering myself a good collection... I just hope so damn much that the same thing doesn't happen tonight... man I hope I'm not jinxing it by writing this... but to be fair I didn't have this problem until very recently and now I've sorted my computer out a fair bit I should be okay.
Anyway though, I still have to buy some decent dvd's! So will some of you folk please hit my recommendations thread and give me some recommendations? I'll bump it so it's easier to find. Hope no one minds me just givin' it the one bump.

Crap I was buffering 8 scenes and the plug-in unresponsive $hit has started coming back! So I got rid of a couple so there's just 6 now but man it's still coming up. The clips are still buffering at the moment (plugged into my router/modem), but man I know when I take my laptop up to bed the exact same thing will happen! Even though they'll all ready be buffered my laptop will have none of it the little shizer. I just know it.
I'm aware that it seems to be a problem that only google chrome has, which is a damn shame because google chrome is good in very good otherwise. So before one thing I tried was downloading Mozilla Firefox, but that was really slow and just kept crashing. Internet Explorer is really slow on my computer too, so I'm wondering what browser should I replace chrome with that will still let me watch internet videos and isn't ridiculously slow either?
Other than that, anything else, quick and easy, that I can do?

if firefox is really slow and crashing on your computer, something is up as it NEVER crashes on mine
not quite as fast as chrome, but more plug ins and very stable
i used both chrome and firefox
did you try system restore to a point before you were having problems?

if browsers are all slow as is watching video, its not the browsers its a problem on your computer

ccleaner
i use both every night

What do you mean by "buffering" ? Buffering is a temporary storage, in temporary memory, of a portion of a streaming video file in order to compensate for the intermittent/flaky nature of data transmission and reduce the occurrence of pauses and stutters during streaming video playback. After you finish watching the streaming video playback, there is no saved file left on your harddrive (because it is/was temporary). (Well actually there is a file on your harddrive but you need special tools/tricks to find it).
Streaming 6 simultaneous videos is a huge burden on your computer and on your connection speed. Try playing around with 1 video at a time until you figure out what's going on.

i have a new comp with 8gig of ram and i only ever have 2 videos buffering/ready to watch at any one time whether im on ztod or youtube or wherever
6 is pretty crazy... saying its the browser is silly, thats your ram not handling all the video slowing down the computer

It sounds like dude may just have a slow connection. Heavy traffic on any given website will slow you down and lead to excessive buffering.
Then there's "throttling" meaning that the more data that you use via your internet provider the more most internet companies will tighten up on your connection speeds. Slow connection speeds are the Kryptonite of streaming and downloading video.
I'd wager that it is your connection. Trust me, I speak from experience. Yet I have an impressive collection of digital clips and full scenes from pay sites...
...I suspect that you may be asking the wrong questions and that you may be asking them in the wrong forum (hint, hint).

I suggest Firefox, and taking a different approach. Install the add-on 'downloadhelper' which will enable you to simply save the videos. Collect all the videos you want. Limiting the number of open tabs will help browser speed and minimize crashing. Watch the collected videos later whenever wherever you want without needing a browser or internet connection.
I recommend VLC as a good video playing application.

I did restore to a previous time yes.
But I've managed to solve the problem by streaming just four or five clips at the same time now. Still want to get some dvds though.
