LOL Okay, I am wondering why this is happening. Sometime back, when I would go to a youtube video, it would open and start playing fairly quickly. Now it seems every time I open one, the hard drive light flashes for about 15 or 30 seconds, whatever. Has something changed about how these videos open, flash player or something? It is annoying to wait and wait. :censored

Depends on the video, speed of your internet connection, and peak times of use.

It also can depend on what virus you may have picked up.

When you see it happen. Leave youtube and go to this site:
http://www.speedtest.net/
This will tell you if you are having a bandwidth speed problem or if perhaps you just have a slow computer as it spools up the hard drive to load a video driver for the specific video you are watching.
For example.....if you get something like a 1.5MPS DL this will cause youtube to be slow. When viewing to you often get the 'loading more video' indicator after watching some of the video and the stream can't keep up?
