Streaming Videos getting slower.

A week ago I could watch any movie or TV Show streaming off the internet, from any site, without having to wait for the thing to buffer. As the topic title says its getting pish, for some reason very pish, I've no idea whats wrong as my broadband connection is steady and transferring files through utorrent at the same rate as always.

I've tried to watch a streamed episode of Married with Children 3 times in the past week, the first was fine, it paused for a few seconds at the start then played right through, the file was fully streamed with 5 minutes left. 2/3 days later it was only loading at HALF the bloody speed.

Now today, the exact same show form the exact same site is fucking crawling, ive worked it out that at the current rate itll take about an hour and a half to be ready to watch.


I use firefox, I'm assuming the latest version, Internet Explorer isnt any quicker, nor is Opera, if its a browser problem.

Any ideas folks
