    Java won't load
    « on: December 25, 2012, 11:37:53 PM »
    I am trying to download a video from youtube by using Keepvid. This site is usually great (I like the idea of not having to download any software) but all of a sudden if the links even load at all, it takes a really long time.
    I read that Firefox has issues with Java so I tried it on Internet Explorer. it doesn't work there either.  I tried to check the version of Java but it says "an add-on for this website failed to run. check the security settings in internet options for potential conflicts" I followed the instructions on the official Java website for this message and restarted after changing but it still said the same thing.
    I googled a little bit and that didn't help me. I feel very lost because I haven't used this primitive browser in years and was so comfortable with Firefox.

    -Internet Explorer 8
    -Avira
    -XP Home Edition Service Pack 3
    -1.46 GB of Ram
    -AMD Processor
