I use winows 10 and Morzilla Firefox v44.0.2

I've only loaded a couple of websites so I'm not sure if this is just a YouTube issue or what, but every time I load a video on YouTube, it plays for a couple of seconds, you can still hear the sound, but the browser stops responding for like 10-15 seconds and then plays again. Keeps doing this fairly often, not sure why.

hi, are you logged in with your account on youtube when that happens? if so could you try it once while you're logged out as well and see if the problem continues... thanks
